I never have. TBH the Abarth even more the GP Schumacher lends its self very well to winter driving. That big heavy engine over the FWD tyres makes it very sturdy.

Yeah I did wonder, sod it I'll wait for the snow and have a go lol, should be fun if nothing else! cheers

You still have to take it easy obviously. I do tend to drive slower than most people on Ice but then i havnt even had one brown trowser moment in 4 years of driving my Schumacher.

Haha well yes that goes without saying, I've gone from a scooby wrx that was good in the snow, found the abs far too intrusive on ice tho, considering those things where designed for that sort of driving, far too common tho so ended up back with the good old fiats, I'll let you know how it goes when we see our first snowfall

Hey everyone, just been to fiat and picked up a genuine oil filter for my schumy, I had the chap double check as the filter is really small compared with the non genuine ones I've used in the past (coopers, Fram, wix etc) but he's assured me it's correct, thought id share this as it's going to mean changing the filters in the future it's a much easier job as everyone knows getting the filters in and out of a 2.4 is a bit of a ball ache!
