I laugh at snow....oh wait, that was last month Laughing

Coped ok pre Land Rover but yes it's hairy! The fact I know how to drive appropriately helps. I find it staggering how people drive about a foot from the car in front in snow or brake close to a junction and expect to stop Rolling Eyes

Defo got my sights set on some Conti TS850's for next winter. Tomorrow I will mix it with the mortals Wink LL.B (Hons) - University of Derby

I've got 30 odd grands worth of 3 day old motor sitting on the drive, no way that is going up the the steep dry stone walled climb today, the Freelander is in the body shop, and the courtesy 107 Peugeot is the last resort, so it looks like a day in front of the telly Thumbs Up 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership

Started to snow harder now, the problem is the wind, I stopped here to go back for a picture of the snow drifts 100yds back, 4-5 ft high quite impressive but the wind was too strong and driving ice into my skin so I gave up.
You can see the wind pressure on the electricity lines in the pic.

Well the body shop rang to say the car was ready today, so I had a crack at getting the 107 courtesy car up the drive and along the lane , I was amazed , we cleared the drive as there is minimum clearance between two walls , but left the lane untouched as I've just had 600 quids worth of planings put down. The little pug breezed it ! They brought the Freelander back to the top of the lane so at least we are weather proof ! 2009 GS Auto Zermatt Silver - Sold June 21 after 10 years of ownership
