Wish I was a collector Eric, it would go into my big shed (who knows you might want it back one day). After one winter there you will be dying to get back here, and -18C will be a balmy day in mid-winter.

After 28 years in Canada I can offer you this advice: Whatever you buy over there make sure it has a good block heater, battery heater, and you have a powered parking space. Freezing door locks are a major pain so it must have remote locking/unlocking but you'll still need to get some of the alcohol based lock de-icer. Other must haves: Tungsten studded snow tyres if they still allow them (they chew up the road surface in summer if left on), and a good remote start system (press the button from the warmth of your home and the vehicle starts itself and turns on the heater!).

You'll be back.
