wonder what my senny would make of the snow 
I wheel spun it off the line in the dry, and i was not even trying!
PROVIDED
A) it's all working correctly.... and you have the LSD.
B) you have SOME idea of how to drive in adverse conditions...
The Sennie B is about the only non 4WD car i'd want to drive in Snow...
They've got me across the A5 passes through Snowdonia in thick heavy snow and fog... Going from Anglesey to Oxford, before the A55 was properly completed...
and home to Old Colwyn, From High Wycombe, when Colwyn Bay had 6 inches of Snow settled on the BEACH.... (you can probably extrapolate how bad the roads were....) if snow settles on a beach... with that much salt around... then the rest of the world is in for a nasty time... oh and it's for real.... it made the centre pages of the national papers...
suffice to say that that night, there was only 1 clear lane on the M6, and the A55 was kind of like driving in the 1000 Lakes rally.
(Fully laden with kids Wife and luggage...... decent traction! )
the hardest bit of the journey was the last 1/2 mile...... there was no route to gain access to our house without going up or down a steep hill, with 90 degree corners and junctions.... and believe you me.... Clwyd County council had barely heard of salt and grit.... and then only on the major A roads.... the roads around our place weren't cleared for about a week....
so it was a question of finding the route with the least hill, and praying i remembered how to balance the car on a combination of handbrake and throttle, and opposite lock in abundance....
the last bit was exciting.... our house was at the bottom of a fairly steeply sloping cul de sac....
there was some question as to whether or not I'd manage to stop the sennie before it went through the garden fences and into the neighbours house...
Mission Accomplished./... although the mrs was almost as white as the snow
