Get a diff. But, yes they do. Put 150bhp in a 1000kg shell to the front wheels and it will spin.

Yes, but only if you drive like a bellend. Mine drove fine even in all the snow and ice if driven sensibly.

I've only driven my XE, but it's very easy to drive sensibly - it's not some lunatic car all the time!
If I want it to be, I put my foot down more, but I can drive all sorts of places through 30's all the way through to motorways in 5th once up to speed.
Mixture of driving it like a twat and driving it sensibly I still get a regular 38mpg from it too

tracking maybe worthy having a check over when getting new tyres.
