Totally agree with you M40WST, nice to have a sensible forum debate. Stopping is no different. As with all potential accidents, driver error or over confidence is always going to be a big factor. I am sure similar applies to active cruise control where people might think they don't have to pay attention to the traffic ahead. I learnt with quattro the does and don'ts about winter driving and how to have some fun. I also don't like 4x4s up my behind and it is not about being able to drive fast but keeping going sensibly. I am sure if we get a few more bad winters then there will be a good debate for tyre laws to change.
I am sure winter tyres will be immense, this time for me I decided more on drivetrain because xdrive became available and, despite Highland Pete's seeming insistence, I do not think xdrive will compensate for poor tyres.
Which other options did you go for?
