Got meself a trafic this week....
« on: 06 January 2010, 18:39:25 »

Swapped the Skoda Superb....for a Renault Trafic on Monday....only for a week...this trafic is the 115dci....and too thirsty on diesel... i want the 100dci....much better fuel economy.
Tho i have to say its performed well in the snow today....only once did i spend 10mins trying to get it going up a reasonable steep hill (coz some muppet in front of me stopped on the hill and i had no choice to stop as well). Best plan of approach i found was just to spin the front wheels while locking the wheel side to side....just sorta snaked up the hill  :y

So....is FWD actually better for this ice and snow.....assuming you actually want to go somewhere and not just do donuts  ::)

Did say about the fuel economy and mine was the DCi 100 too, great vehicles though apart from gearboxes, very comfy and look good  :y
