A guy I know teaches for landrover yet drives a CRV with heavy treaded snow tyres and swears by it and often pulls women (his words not mine) in Range Rovers out of ditches as they think they are unstoppable on snow lol

Back in summer 2012 (the wet one) I went to the Great Yorkshire show and the car parks were a quagmireHoggyf wrote:cheers for that JB (thumbs)

After the first day they cancelled the 3 day show
On returning to the car at the end of the day, I thought we'd need towing out, but stuck the CRV in 1st and the car pulled itself out no problem, past a stuck RR Sport and Discovery and even overtook a Defender, that was struggling
I was amazed by the little CRV
When I had a company one in 2008, I took it on some green lanes, wheich were rutted and muddy and the CRV coped very well
I'm astounded by how well it goes for a SUV

Re: Bikes and Cars..
Well I'm a petrol head as well as a biker so no embarraesment when I say I love cars and drive mine a lot. Unfortunately since having a baby I traded my M3 in for a Peugeot 508 SW diesel. The good thing about it is it will do around 800-1000 miles on a tank which makes it less hassle to got work in.
Wife's got a VW Tiguan diesel which is OK if you're into the 4wd type of SUV.
I am on the look out for a 2 seater for a bit of fun in the new year though...

I have this as a winter bike/car. I run it on winter tyres and it worked in the snow surprisingly well. Roofs are for wimps
