Yay! its snowing

[herbertanchovy]

Finally, it's the time of year when people stop laughing at my little Subaru Justy! It loves the snow and never gets stuck

[paulmoonraker]

Snowing in Wales - what?

Send some down south please.

[CaptainSlow]

Minus 3 here and just taken the Forester for a spin to get all that nice cold air into the turbo.

I fking love it when it snows. I get a chance to drive the impreza the way it's supposed to he driven, loads of nice cold air for the turbo and fk all grip to show off the handling.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO i just sold my Scoob!!!!!

Two wheel drive and no turbo just ain't the same..............bloody typical really even when we had snow last year the Scoob was off the road for a month being repaired as some tt hit it!!

It can still snow i'll just play with the dog instead

[JFReturns]

I'm hoping for some snow to see what teh Scoob can do. Even volunteered at work to be the emergency driver to take people home/to the bus station if they get stuck

[paulmoonraker]

Last year when it snowed I managed to skid my WRX into a Nissan Micra in a car park! Perhaps I am a plonker You may all laugh if you like…

Whoops!

Four wheel drive doesn't help you stop!

Mine pulls up sharper in the snow than all the front drive hatches I have owned...

I know, but my Forester has 4WB, too...

Actually it does make engine braking much more effective on slippery stuff (even more so if you have low range), and helps resist the tendency for individual wheels to lock.

My DCCD on the STI has been brilliant. Genuinely couldn't get out from where it was parked until I selected the Lock Diff setting.

My drive to work this morning was like a stage of the Swedish rally - only slightly slower

[JFReturns]

My Scoob has been brilliant so far. Hasn't got any fancy locking diffs but it hasn't got stuck yet!
