    I must be unlucky I can recall about 8 or 9 punctures in my driving career maybe even more that I forgot about. I once got 3 in one week. I honestly thought that I was going crazy. Maybe it's me hugging the apex all the time.

    well so far so good for my Toyo Snow Proxes. Certainly put them to the test over the past few days on some great snow covered unsalted B roads they didn't get much of a try out last year.

    aye, my Nokians have been brilliant.

    I used my dads car (VW Tiguan) on xmas day to shuttle the auntie from glasgow and it didn't go that great in the snow, then jumped into mine and it was fantastic.. Just shows what a difference the right tyres do.

    I have to push a guy out of a parking spot today and there was next to no snow... he was doing it at 7000rpm tho

    that will have been because he was trying to get his car to go over high frozen solid ice/snow noticed a good few cars today struggle in the same situation. The centre of the road is so high with frozen snow/ice that my car scrapes along it those front flap bits at the wheels
