Oh dear! That's a fair amount of snow!! We have none here at the moment
 
Took my clio to work this morning then had to drive it back in about 5-6inches of it... First time in the snow but I've made it back luckily, thought I was gunna get stuck lol
 
I am at work tomorrow, and its a good 18 miles away, so I dont know if I will make it in! Theres no way I'm taking it out while the weather is like this!

Cleared te drive after a lairy sideways drive home. Good fun! Opposite lock XD it amazes me the way people go from extremes. You get those who drive far too fast for the conditions cos they think their 4x4 or Audi is amazing in te snow or those who simply stop and cause people to back up and loose te momentum they need.
 
After having a car pull out on me an hour ago, on a blind bend without looking right on a busy industrial state, mines not being used now. Luckily I saw the car at the lastminute and managed to swerve round him as there was nothing coming the other way. I tried braking first but it just slid. So lucky. Fair to say the thick as pigshit Indian driver got a mouthful and couldnt understand what was happening. Hope to see him again on monday

Literally was driving next to him side by side doing about 25mph, so he must of just pulled out the junction without even touching his brakes. Just dint understand what goes through peoples minds

Try driving something that has 230 bhp going through the front wheels and heavier ;-) drive from work was fun fun

Feather throttle ;)

I kept mine around 1000revs all the time with very light throttle, twingos are really good in the snow!!

Haha I know they are. I hit black ice going up slight hill earlier and wheels span, revs picked up, boost kicked in... Only for like 2/3 seconds but was like oops! Remember no boost
