driving home from work yesterday listening to clumps of snow trail along the floor of my Honda Civic VTi-S yesterday made me cringe. Loads of traction with the LSD even stopping on icy slopes while some poor sod in an MX5 plowed into a transit van right in front of me. Got home to my village and woah, like a foot of snow on the streets! Nothing for it, second gear and give it some welly, see how far i get up the street before i get stuck. The answer is, right to my front door! Had to open the bonnet and take all the snow out of my engine bay with my hands though. It was right up past the exhaust manifold!!!
So as you can see having 3inches of ground clearance is no good when you have 10 inches of snow. Excuse the quality it was taken with my camera fone.
