Glad someone else finds its not the worst car in the world, well not when its paired with a reasonable driver
agreed its not that bad. people seem to curse it to the ground in this weather but i've not really had any problems, as long as i don't loose momentum. had to gently rock it out with the clutch but once moving i'm usually fine.
been pulling away in 3rd works a treat, and not using the loud pedal much. just tickle it really. and use the gears to slow down for roundabouts and corners. hardly touch my brakes, keepa good gap and make judgements and adjustments really early.
yes my wifes car is easier to drive in this weather but mine isn't impossible.
what makes it difficult are the other plob heads on the road who don't know how to drive
