Hi all, I am renting a car to drive from Glasgow to Fort William for a few days hiking up Ben Nevis at the weekend, in the snow. I was thinking it would be fun to rent a Jag F Type, so I can go for a spin round the Queen Liz Forest Park, but I don't want to literally, go for a spin...Can any Scottish PHers advise what the road conditions are like? Weather forecasts suggest wet roads at ground level, above freezing for most of the time, below for some.

Am I going to kill myself driving a Jag around Scotland in Feb, should I get something boring?
