I'm in a LDV Maxus, has been fine on the snow/ice tbh. Will be interesting in the 5 inches or so and blizzard conditions expected tomorrow though.
They also said it could be 3 days in some parts of the country, but I doubt that. No doubt the Express has gone mental on the world ending or something

I better not get fucking stuck on the way home tomorrow night.
Fiesta seems shite in the snow. Don't think the Dunlop tyres are the best.

Everyone says that about every car or tyre in the whole world 
Can we just assume that any car is not going to drive as well on snowy/icy roads?
