Beavis Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 So who will be out in their zed tomorrow morning in the 10-15 cms of snow predicted? I wont be, dont want it mangled by some noob who as never driven in the snow before Quote
Chesterfield Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Ill be waiting for the phonecall from the mrs to say its been mangled. Quote
M13KYF Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 think I'll be leaving mine tucked up in the garage and getting the tram into work Quote
Leenx Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 No garage for me, and certainly won't be taking her out in that weather! Remember last time I did when it snowed. Car was sliding al over the shop! Work or no work the cars staying at home!! Quote
nixy Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 this is one of my big fears about changing from front wheel to rear wheel! I live out in the sticks where no gritter will venture. I have 5 miles of untreated road to tackle before hitting a main road. I used to have a bmw and that was bad enough - people don't seem to realise why you're going so slow and treat you like a moron by getting right up your backside and making you feel like Mr Magoo! Public transport is also non-existent for me to get to work. So is it going to be really bad for me in winter when i get one or will I be ok? Quote
sl114 Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Nope, all tucked up in the garage for me too, if its that bad, i will work from home, just getting my VNC sorted now Quote
Leenx Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 Exactly in the same shoes as you mate! - There's no way I'm risking it again. I remember though when I decided to work from home in the end and parked up the Zed outside my house - the amount of cars who zoomed up my street with all the icy patches - Thoughtless ***rs! I couldn't face another insurance route through nofault of my own!! Quote
Guest prescience Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 You can always consider snow chains - there was a thread on here recently IIRC. This car does give problems in snow with all that torque Quote
Digsy Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 I'll be looking like a nonce in Kat's Micra if it snows. Quote
skifreek Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 If the road is white then i aint going nowhere except downstairs to make myself a nice cuppa Quote
GC350z Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 I'll be out in my Z. Was great this morning. Only a thin layer but was enough to make it real interesting. Love it. Slipping and sliding out of my apartment complex. Tomorrow we're due a lot more snow. Cant wait to get up and go to work. That doesn't like me Quote
stuey Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 you could always switch the snow button switch............. that might help......... Quote
M13KYF Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 I'll be looking like a nonce in Kat's Micra if it snows. Don't need a Micra for that Quote
Beavis Posted February 7, 2007 Author Posted February 7, 2007 So it looks like if it snows as much as they say most zeds will be having the day off Quote
Stew Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 you could always switch the snow button switch............. that might help......... Snow button? I've had snow here since monday and the Zed hasn't ventured out! Quote
alscar Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 All right for you stop at home types! I will have to venture out!!! Extra care needed I thinks! Quote
Digsy Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 I'll be looking like a nonce in Kat's Micra if it snows. Don't need a Micra for that Oi! Quote
JAP350Z Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 you could always switch the snow button switch............. that might help......... Snow button? JDM + Tiptronic Gearbox + Snow Button = Lower torque & no sideways sliding. Love it, works a treat with decent tyres & no problems yet. Quote

Had one of those snow buttons in a Lexus IS200........ for what use it was i would have taken the sunshine button option if i had known Quote
Stew Posted February 7, 2007 Posted February 7, 2007 The one in my IS just seemed to make a funny noise on the Diff! Quote
