2010 Range Rover Autobiography 5.0 SC V8 Barolo Black

Thought I would try the Pirelli Scorpion Winter Yesterday.

Took this on a pretty steep hill. The footage doest do it justice. Didn't need snow mode just drove almost normally. No slipping, braking was excellent as cornering was!

You may not like the music (I'm not sure I like it).

Winter tyres are the dog's danglies.

Learnt that many years ago. Had a 4WD Audi in Germany. First winter, I couldn't believe the traction (on winter tyres). I thought it was the 4x4.

the next winter, it snowed in October (you switch to Winter tyres in Nov). On summer tyres, it was scary.

Steep hill down to a turn before bridge with metal railing would be interesting on summer tyres....

We've had a wee bit of snow here too, had winters for a few years, might have to go and look for deep stuff tomorrow. Your right, music is an acquired taste, is it meant to sound like it's jumping?

Mr Tee. It is meant to sound like that. I did the video in a bit of a rush and had used other music on other videos and was sick of hearing it!

Here's mine from last week - Continental Winters - always nice to just keep on going when everyone else is fitting their chains as they can't go any further Especially when it's -14 and snowing
