snow!!!

m8, quite how mine did not get wrapped round a tree or a lamp post last night i have absolutely no idea.

this car is completely useless in the snow. my fault for maybe for the spec but imo:

rear wheel +
auto box +
Traction control +
dodgy rft tyres

= a car that does not work in the snow..


i got stuck for 30 mins on the M25 last night whilst being past by various corsa's and clio's etc etc... and we only got out of the hole as the dear wife (giggle) managed to push me out of the hole.. unfortunately i couldn't stop to pick her back up again!!!

i then got stuck again on a local lane just by my house and after got the doris to push me out again (my heroin!!), ended up going the full length of the 1 1/2 car width road on complete opposite lock and totally sideways, missing every tree and lamp post by what seemed to be millimetres, whilst bouncing in and out of bushes and kerbs..

don't get me wrong, i love my car, and i was basically pooing myself all night in case i bent it..

but these guys that drive a 1er in snowy places.. hats off don't know how you do it!

1er's are poo in the snow. 135 with my drivetrain spec, no way!

i just hope when the snow melts i have no damage, but i really am not sure.

i will point out we have had about 40cm here.. and still coming!
