went out earlier in the sedici, really not the car for this weather, the brakes worked well, being able to slow without locking in the snow ontop of ice, but as it's accelerator is like an on off switch you can't control it so well, slight touch on the accelerator, it revs up to 1.5k (in 4th) with no gain in speed as wheels spin then as it falls back down it starts to grip and lunges off surprisingly quickly. had a front wheel skid on a bend, so corrected it before i plowed into pavement at a wapping 10mph! happens slowly so it's very easy to correct which is nice. also didn't have to three point turn in the turning area in my road for once :devil: steering "feel" is excellent despite power steering, i've not known any other car (in my very limited experience) with PAS to give as much "feel" through the steering wheel, most tend to be too powerfull and light to give much sense of how the road feels.
This sort of weather would be perfect for my old 1.4, it's skinny tyres cut through snow, and the inherent stability of the tipo platform means no rear end drama unless you handbrake it. and a smooth throttle.
Main roads were all fine though, just slush and water, so able to relax for a bit. coming back into my estate the road having been used more on that side was a lot easier lol. what i was meant to be doing tomorrow in Bath has been cancelled so just going to stay in and be lazy yet again lol.

I really hope these are the cocky ones who end up crashing into kerbs and so on
