Have you had the work carried out on it yet then?

[john_r]

Just to clarify - weather depending:

Snow no.
Sun yes.
Rain yes.
Icy no.

In the recent heavy frosts the M5 is about as friendly as a cat being poked with a hot skewer...

[Robatr0n]

I'm with you there John.

[bmwdrivernigel]

Just to clarify for me too:

Snow - Yes
Ice - Yes
Rain - Yes
Sun - No

[john_r]

Snow - I'll bring the Disco and a tow rope...

Try one with even more torque

That funny little symbol on the dash keeps flashing at me , however I've discovered the trick in this weather, DTC off then you can go sideways a little but if you get it wrong or hit some really slippy shite it hides any total lack of talent!

If my cars working then I'll go whatever the weather - Rob that's a poor show from the 4WD Audi dept.

If my cars not, Nigel, you want a passenger?

Just to clarify for me too:

Snow - Yes - Roof on
Ice - Yes - Roof Off
Rain - Yes - Roof on
Sun - yes - Roof off

My issue is stopping!

I'm all for a blast out but brakes in the ice will be next to useless unless ofcourse we have a <10mph talent contest that involves drifting!

No, that happens on Thursday, but this is always a general problem this time of year
