Winter in the car......

[sion_1990]

I have a bit of a thing with the black magic electronics... I love ABS, best thing that ever happened to motor vehicles, but the rest always throw me off my stride, like the car is telling me "No, you may not do that, bad Sion"

I got my little punto stuck on standard summer bridgestone tyres when I could see through the slush... Fitted winter tyres and it could outclimb posh peoples 4x4 cross over couldn't get up The 1:4 hill yet I made it no drama

I haven't had any snow to test them out yet but I have the mountain/snowflake symbols on mine so I'm not dreading the slush like I usually do.

I prepped both vehicles by buying some trade size boxes of de-icer and left a few cans in each before the cold comes and the panickers strip the shelves, thats with the usual blankets, shovel, gas stove, water, sleeping bags and wayfarer meals...

And on the subject of winter tyres, we have a front wheel drive city car fitted with skinny Nokian winter tyres which goes anywhere in the snow, we've even passed a few 4x4's on big wide 20" wheels with summer tyres spinning away, always a joy
