Had a fantastic weekend chaps, 5 hour drive from Oslo heading north on snow and ice.

Had to maintain a reasonable speed to cover the ground so meant constant drifts.

Had a Nissan X trail & was actually amazed by it, was on winter tyres which helped a lot.

actually a very good car, great in the slippery stuff, good tiptronic gearbox, full leather and pretty quick.

Awesome scenery, best moment of the trip was doing a 90km/hr sideways drift while a 70 year old couple in a toyota yaris overtook me whilst laughing, saw them about 30km up the road crashed, they were fine so i carried on, 10 mins later they passed me again hahahahahaha.

Have some photos if anyone can host them.

not sure sorry hereward, standard winter ones put on by europcar, they did the job though, to be honest the grip was astonishing considering the conditions.

who do you trade crude for out of int?
