I make sure my tyres and wipers are in good order and check my antifreeze, beyond that it can sit outside and shiver!

For the drivers comfort I have a couple of fleeces, a torch, high-vis vest, a waterproof.....etc...in case of emergencies.

My car is only a few months old, lives in a nice (warmish) garage and won't want to go out in the winter weather....the previous ones didn't!

[Baldric]

Both cars in for a service shortly,
and I check everything weekly all year 'round.

[BlueToffee]

I would encourage everybody not only to check their HEADlights, but also to use them in adverse weather conditions.

Maintenance? What's that?

If it goes, I use it. If it doesn't, I fix it.

And what's that funny word 'clean'? I'm not really sure what it means but I can confidently say that it's never been applied to my car in the 3½ years that I've owned it!

[Old_Geezer]

I neglect it equally in all seasons.

No

Same as Buenchico, for me.

[woofgang]

well none of my cars have ever complained.

[BRIGHT SPARK]

...and we wonder why there's gridlock after the first sign of frost!!
