Don't Drive an SC in Snow

Well the end result is that the insurance company will not budge on the 40% buyback for the wreck so it is not worth keeping the wreck. So some bloody lucky wrecker out there will be on a winner when they get this one.

Decision made and am going with the cash only settlement. So now have to decide on the next car. Will it be a porsche? hmm might go for a change for a while. Thinking of the RX8 - should be a bit of fun.

Cheers
 
Yeah maybe I should get one. Always wanted AWD. Will wait till I'm in Canada for that one.
 
Subarus are only good in the snow on winter tyres!!!! On summer tyres I wouldn't bother, I've tried :(

17 years ago my Ur-quattro was a differant matter - brilliant

Good luck mate. Hope you stay within the porsche circles as your RX8 will loose bag loads of money. A 944 turbo might provide more pleasure and will loose you less money....


Take care,

Bert
