Caporegime
I agree with the sentiment, but I CAN get the rear end to go in the S3 in the wet... and certainly in the snow! Sure it soon sorts itself out and either grips or becomes a four wheel drift, but still!I’ve driven my M135i for about 70,000 miles and in all sorts of weather (and always on MPSS) and I haven’t died, not even once.
Of course it’s easy to provoke the back end (which you cannot do in an S3...just understeer city) if you drive it like a hooligan but if you do that regularly enough for it to be an issue then you are, in fact, a massive gentleman’s sausage and you shouldn’t be on the road.
They are now where near the understeer monsters of the earlier generation haldex equipped cars.
