It was bad enough getting any traction in my non PSM Box S- how was it for you guys with bigger power?? Has to be said though, it was a bloody laugh too hehe

Mine was fine - no traction control whatsoever, and never had a problem

I've had to wear my warm socks to make my journey up the stairs to my office / workplace.
I can see my 993 out of the window. It's covered in snow but appears to be handling it well.

Just been out and about in the snow! What a grin until I came back down 'The Hyde' from up on Minch common. Very hary even witha bit of a thaw... but then I was in the Disco (aka Tractor)

Havent had the balls to take 'Noddy' out even if it is a C4! Happy with my (lack of) ability but it is all the other muppets I would worry about.

Did I mention I decided to work from home today?

When I woke up this morning and saw that the forecasters had got it right for once and there was indeed a good 3" of snow covering everything outside, I had the choice of taking the porker or Mrs deevees 4x4 for my 30 mile commute.

I'm actually quite ashamed to say that I plumped for the truck! boxedin

However, the journey was really pleasant! None of the usual spanners out and about, an opportunity for childish shennanigans at either end of the journey on the non-gritted roads , and VIP sole use of the outside lane of the M40! What's more, I didn't have to worry about getting my P&J covered in salty slushy crap!

Actually took me less time than it does normally and it was twice as much fun! thumbup

I'll take this weather every day!

Fair amount of snow here last night - decided to leave the C4S in the garage today. 4WD is one thing, but too many muppets on the road and even with 4WD it won't stop any quicker on ice!!
