Yep, they are very controllable, IMHO.

Better than a Wes... *runs off* :-X

Ahh that's different, then ;)

But yes, really very controllable - granted I was late for work, so I was more or less concentrating on 'getting there' than having fun (also it's hard to have fun on the M3 ;D ) :)

Well my car isn't that great in the snow, admittedly my tyres need doing and there was no weight in the back but I couldn't get up a not-very-steep hill for work the other day and had to take SWMBO's 206.
    Also scared the s**t out of me when it started to lose traction coming down the hill (at walking speed) and sliding towards a bus coming the other way. Looking for something heavy to put in the boot now...  ;D ;D

Been out and about this morning but we're starting to suffer drifts :(

The neighbour was outside for about 2 hours clearing his paths, car and a bit of road for a run up but it's already starting to disappear!

If no-one likes the snow may i suggest coming over to Bolton, Lancashire cos we've only had about 1/2''
Mind you the ice on the back roads means my Mig has turned into a crab. I'm sure parked vehicles have magnets attached to them!
So i've made a management decision & as i work from home i've decided not to use the car thus saving the planet & more importantly my pocket  ;) :D :D
