Landy1uk:
I used to have a 1998 Mondeo 2 lt Diesel its 13 miles from home to work never got stuck in the snow as i drove to the conditions & had winter tyres on, as Disco matt says it's the Driver I've seen a person at a horse show get stuck in a defender trying to get Horse box out of a warter logged field my mate got the Defender out and showed them how to use the extra gearsticks There comment was wondered what they were for?????
I think Driving lessons should include a skid pan day or something similar

Scrub what I put above !!!
You'd have to be mental to take a 2wd car out in what we've got this morning. There's 6" of fresh snow laying on the road and it's snowing hard. All of the cars on the street have snow drifting up against them they would need digging out for starters.
Only guy to have gone anywhere this morning was in a nissan patrol st johns ambulance.

Im not convinced, I have been driving my h plate BMW 318iS about in 4 inches of snow.....on normal tyres, with no reall issues, just remebering that some of the steering now done by the rear?! all I have done is take the front splitter off?

again driving my recycle lorry today I had no real problems on the ice where as 1 woman failed in her fiesta to make it up a slight hill then after about 5 minutes went back into her road to go back home. Why she didnt turn left and go DOWN the hill to the obviously gritted road at the bottom and go to work that way is beyond me. Also another mum with daughter in the passenger seat got stuck getting out of her drive. I jumped out and said put it in 2nd and it will be easier. The look of shock on her face when she got off her drive 1st time with ease. :doh:

Taking the Ignis out in the snow is one thing, but I won't even try moving the skyline :evil:
