Sports/Hyper Cars in the Snow

[WelshBoyo]

Now that the snow has hit us hard, I've noticed that a lot of Sport/Hyper Cars are still being driven around even in the snow. I saw a lovely red Ferrari 599 and a black Porsche 911 Turbo this morning. I have to applaud the drivers for taking their exotica out in the snow, but surely it must be a little bit scary ?

Absolutely - whilst my 993 is not in the same league as the cars you spotted, when i did use it in winter, many a morning did i arrive at work with a puckered seat base and white knuckles.

This was with winter tyres as well.

Totally stupid and irresponsable IMO, not withstanding salt ingress under the vehicle. Put them away in a warm and dry place and wait for next spring.

Unless you have good winter tyres. And staff to wash the car. And other cars. Upper Engadin Blingski
