You just get used to the car I suppose, and learn to use the throttle appropriately to get the most power down for the conditions.
If they did XDrive in the UK on the bigger-engined models I'd definitely have it though; not for the 3 days a year we have snow, but to get all that power you've paid for actually down on the road  |
Spot on....but yes you wouldn't buy it for snow, winter tyred RWD would be more appropriate in the snow than an xDrive with summers. But agreed, in the wet conditions the AWD just works.....too well at times, I do like a bit of sideways action
