Late Bays vs Snow

Discussion in 'General Discussion' started by Starryboy, Jan 14, 2013.

  1. Are late bays any good in the snow or just as crap as any other rwd vehicle.

    I thought it might be slightly different as a lot of the weight is over the engine.

    What's you're opinions?
     
  2. :chewie: COOL
     
  3. That second video suggests they are better then. Seemed a fairly stable journey. Would never attempt that in my 320 BMW lol

    Rear engine rear wheel drive great for going in straight lines its turning corners and stopping that need a bit of forward planning!
     
  7. I was just thinking if it was a good alternative if I struggle with my car. I'm not fussed about using this time of the year if I need too. I've got a few important meetings this week and a backup plan is always good.

    Yesterday was interesting.... However it made it where a 4 x 4 failed and got 4 people home when public transport threw in the towel!
    Only real issue was trying to get in it as all doors had frozen solid had to climb through rear hatch lol
