After picking up my shiny new Scud on Saturday - I had just under an hour in it before the snow really hit, and now I'm watching more snow falling......
This is fking killing me - my advice is to give AWD options a bit more consideration if you're buying over winter and actually want to get behind the wheel.

Mine isn't italian (7.1RS) but had it out in the snow last wkend, and again tonight smile fun sliding the rear end.

If I had a Scud or CStradale (still looking at getting one), it would definitely be out there smile as long as it gets a proper wash after it's all good: nothing more than cold rain really.

Well.....

If you can't drive it, you could at least take a picture for us all.

I did get a bit of time for some hooliganism and a few skids. Very pleased so far in the painfully limited driving time I've had.

Your not alone I am sharing your pain, picked up my 458 last thursday, got home, in the garage & not out again since, very frustrating indeed, but gives you something to look forward too, can almost taste the anticipation!....loving the blue colour...we have similar wheels too!!

Proper colour.

Looks superb. You must be chuffed.
