Originally posted by SR71I drove 800 miles today to the French Alps through blizzards all the way from Calais to Dijon. Its -16C now in Morzine and snowing. The S2 performed flawlessly.
Now I'm jealous, not going skiing this winter for the first time in 19 years

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...Ex S2 owner, now running around in an A4 Avant quattro...
