Snowing heavily again, so probably an uncharacteristic wise decision. :wink:

I've been eyeing up 4x4s for a while.... :grin: Biggest issue with the bimmer and snow is more the lack of ground clearance than the more obviously issues!

Well done in catching the notice and turning round. I've got ride of the Subaru Legacy and in the rear drive Lexus now. Really worried about it all :grin: but hoping 4x snow tires might help a little (if I get em on in time)...

It was just mentioned in this thread, we started Friday and are doing 2 nights, as you do when it's below zero all the time and snowing :roll:
