bilc0 Report post Posted January 7, 2010 He should have gone for the BMW optional extra of a bag of cement that fits very nicely into the boot. A shocking performance Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ianj Report post Posted January 7, 2010 Gotta admit, my BMW 330D is absolutely CRAP in the snow/ice. Even at tickover and letting the clutch out slowly it will just spin.........so I never stand a chance. These past few days I have been using the wife's "putt putt" (Vauxhaul Corsa) to get to work........job done! Ian. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ham2 Report post Posted January 8, 2010 (edited) I don't think that video shows a quattro (notice no capital Q) even a standard A4 will romp over a 3 Series in the winter. My next-door neighbour is a complete BMW snob and took delivery of a brand new 3 series recently, he has spent the last week 'working from home' as the new motor won't go anywhere in these conditions. A quattro A4 overtook me at the traffic lights at work on Tuesday in a hurry to beat the red light, steered right off the road,collected a supermarket trolley and continued (out of stubborness) to drive ,pushing the trolley along...comical. It's funny but I've noticed that (a sweeping generalisation I know) the lads that have a trials bike seem less prone to getting their cars' stuck in the snow??...maybe just a tyre pressure thing?? As they used to say on HillStreet Blues:-Let's be careful out there Edited January 8, 2010 by HAM2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
