    Took my mate 10 hours to get from J5 of the M5 to Nottingham yesterday

    He thought it would be a good idea to go pick his wheels up from Ross on Wye on the busiest shopping day of the year coupled with 6" of snow in brum

      Five hours stuck on the A34 near Oxford on Saturday. Nearly a foot of snow in places.
      I thought we would be there the night!!!!!
      I did see a silver Passat tring to follow the 4x4's in the outside lane at stupid speeds, next thing he's buried in a snow drift on the central reservation

        It's not too bad down here, just popped out to test the effectiveness of the 16s in the snow and they seem fine, a bit of a learning exercise before Christmas journeys. Drifting 4wd is somewhat less simple than rwd but everything else is a lot more relaxing. Was just thinking an 80 quattro would be an ideal winter car

          what sort of time as I did go down there, I was the guy on the other side doing rolling burnouts trying to get the thing moving!....

          but there was a few cars trying to follow 4x4's in the snow section and getting stuck.
