I had a little run out today over the moors and on my return had to go down quite a steep road which had snow and ice on it. I had never used hill decent in anger before so thought i would give it a try, WOW Top to bottom all feet off and it did great, just on the steepest bit it started to slide a little but I corrected it (still no pedals used) and it sorted its self out.....Impressed of Burnley

Nice....
We’ve gotten close to 45-50 cm of snow in the last few days.
Here’s a picture of the D3’s

I’ll see if I’ll find a nice heap of snow at the end of the week somewhere.. we should get a similar amount more in the next few days.

HDC is impressive. isn't it? I've used it, in combination with low range, on an icy steep road - I was out "playing" - and it was amazing. I got out to see how bad the conditions really were and promptly had to grab the door as my feet started to go out from under me!Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

Was known in our house as engaging spaniel mode, due to the propensity of the dog to set it when clambering over to the passenger footwell from the driver’s side. Another good reason for a rear cage.Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana
