| Just used hill decent and snow/ice mode.. Seriously good |
|
Just been out doing my santa deliveries to friends and families and have had to use hill decent due to a completely iced and snow covered hill outside my parents home. Omg.. The car just coped with the decent so easily.
After that, I dropped off at my brothers whose street was iced over also. He lives on a small incline.. All the cars were struggling and in fact failing to get up the hill. Toby the d3, just climbed in a controlled manor..
I actually felt quite smug.. Does that make me a bad person? Hell no.. cos I know exactly what it is like when I'm driving my 530d.. The car just has to sniff ice and it decides its time to do a argentina tango.. Selling my wifes Audi A3 2.0LTR FSI DSG Sport to help pay for her D3
