          Now I'm jealous, not going skiing this winter for the first time in 19 years

                My car hasn't turned a wheel in 6 days, after all the recent bumps people have reported I decided best to leave it be. I'm not up for going through the same ordeal as 10 months ago

                      I love quattro.
                      I've just had to go to rescue my parents, as their car got stuck in the snow, so they had to abandon it.

                      It would be even better if I didn't have bald 225 tyres!

                              Oddly, can't believe we have escaped the snow were we are Not a jot.
                              Which I do find bizarre as, OK, further east/coast like Dover had roads shut and the like,and Sussex ( more south west)is covered (?).. I have even seen cars parked up that have had huge drifts of snow on them.......

                              I now fully expect to have 2 feet of snow when I open the front door in the morning

                                Just be careful all you guys with very wide, high performance summer tyres on, they'll give you VERY poor grip in very cold/ snow/ ice/ slush conditions - even the mighty quattro won't save us from the wrong tyres in the wrong conditions, especially with the large dollops of torque from the IL5 turbo...
