Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio is it scary in the winter?

[Wayne95]

Hi All,

looking for a Quad as a daily driver, my commute is 70 miles each way once a week, mostly motorway. But I live in the countryside and drive through B roads often.

I like the idea of a Quad, but is 500HP and rear wheel drive a bit tricky during the winter months when the road is slippy, my wife will also drive it, and neither she or me are italian driving gods.

I'm used to powerful stuff ( Aston, Porsche etc), but these have been weekend cars not a daily in wet conditions.

We do have an old Defender for when it snows

Thanks
Wayne

Thanks, that’s what I hoped.

Any recommendations for good winter tyres , are there winter wheels available or just swap the tyres.

While I’m here… is there a quiet-ish start up mode? My Aston woke up everyone in the street when I set off at 6:40am!

Personally I can’t think of a better alarm clock , but people are weird
