My fu**a is stuck in my garage behind the house down a bloody hill. LOL
I have to drive out, across a steep slope, then up and out the block. I got no chance in snow. To top it all, the neighbours car is outside their garage and is a definite "target" if i should start sliding. FFS.

Yeah that does look smart that!
My lowly 03 WRX is sat with 3mm summer tyres on it and a cross-hill section to get out of if i am ever to get the car out the garage! LOL.
With the other car left near it, i am f**ked at the moment until i get out with the grit and shovel.

Took my discovery 3 out during the snow... total blast.... had so much fun... even went looking for steeper and steeper hills to test it's capabilities further... plus took out my 10m rescue rope to help others (pants worn on outside of trousers moment)
When I thought the snow had eased enough I took the scooby out....
Sledge.... sideways sledge... unstoppable sledge... fantastic fun sledge but still a SLEDGE... drove home and got my Disco out again.... no comparision.... driving the disco was like a walk in the park....driving the scooby was fine as long as I wanted to go straight and not stop.
A landy (any landy) will run rings round a scooby in snow... and certainly go further than one when it gets deep...
