Snowed here over night. Trying to work out which buttons you have to press to make this pickup work in snow. So far it seems you need offroad mode turned on if you want it to stop and traction control turned off if you want it to turn.

I just want an engine and gearstick!!! :angry2:

Just spent most of the afternoon driving a commuity nurse around the wilds of Rutland as a volunteer for Leicestershire & Rutland 4x4 Response. The nurse had scared herself half to death in a BMW 3 series with the usual tyres in the morning at Ketton when a snow shower hit. Around here in Melton Mowbray it looks like a sprinkling of icing sugar; Ketton has about 4 inches and that side of Rutland has between 2-6" depending on which showers hit when.

I love my 110 dearly and it is capable in snow, but I decided that one country road was more risk than I wanted to handle; an even coating of ice under a couple on inches of powder snow on a significant downslope. So explaining to my passenger that I was a wuss, I reversed to a gateway and did a three point turn, then drove a longer route on level, or at least, treated roads.
