I too love my tyres...if thats possible...knowing when I set off they is the business & they keep my family safe is one great big chunk of piece of mind.
I have just returned form Germany....lots of snow & nasty slippy roads aroung Nurmeburg...the company I was with used a BM 5 series eatse for a conveyance on my trip...it had Michelin Winter Tyres...these were very very good with only a few seconds they werent effective...a RWD drive car...lots of grunt but they worked very very well.
Not just autobahns & b roads....we drove into quarries & onto to remote sites ....steep hills...no bother.
I didnt realise the Germans didnt treat their roads not much gritting was in place...but they all seem to have winter tyres & cope with the situation. ....have Disco3 HSE TD6 Auto...winter mobile
....also Jag XK......the economy 5.0 litre one...I'm REALLY smitten with this
....& have a Freelander 2 SE Auto...realistic runabout....
