All down to tyres anyway, My jag is shit in the snow, Dad has the bigger engined version of the same car and with the Winter Tyres it was perfect; I couldn't get into the drive at home; he drove his out through a 2ft depth making two tracks for me to drive up and I still couldn't drive on the snow - shitty Pirellis.
But got the Disco this year anyway

Doesn't matter what you are driving or what tyres you have on, if you hit ice you've had it. Or the person behind you that comes hurtling in to the back of you when you stop at a junction.

Unless your in a landy and you'll end up with zero damage. I've been on the recieving end of one and they are hard to break!!
Snow socks ftw tbh. Cheap, easy and do the job.

Where i live in High Wycombe, when i pull out of my road, theres a steep as fuck road to the right, and a steep as fuck road to the left 
The main way out of High Wycombe is a stupidly steep 1 mile hill, not looking forward to that in the 182.
Ive been told last year people were just using other cars as brakes. Bouncing off them down the hills.
And the polish were out charging people to get them out of the snow in there 4x4's
Where abouts in High Wycombe do you live? 
I was hoping to of sold my car and bought a 4wd sports hatch/saloon, but it hasn't happened. My car is useless in the snow on summer tyres.
I really should invest in a winter set.
I live just on the edge of Cressex, didnt realize you were from round Wycombe!
So i guess it is as bad as people say, going up desborough must be a nightmare!
I'm in High Wycombe aswell, Totteridge . If its as bad as they say, Totteridge hill and Hatterslane hill are gonna be a nightmare..

I love how in the ///M3 threads everyone says the snow doesnt bother them as its only a few weeks a year and the ///M3 is still the best car you can get. But then everyone looks at buying/buys a 4x4 for this few weeks of snow when it actually comea around.

My drive is on a slope, on a road off a big hill at the top of another hill. So the ///M was fucking useless 
I have a vid of my dads attempt to movi it somewhere, just slides on the conti M3s.
My Clio was great in the snow
