Default More UK silliness

I live in a valley and to get to my house its up a hill and down another

and
back up a hill.
2 1/4 tons of car, front wheel drive, solid ice road says you will get

stuck
on the hills but 10 psi in the front tyres solves my problem of getting
stuck every time.


Just imagine the traction my citroen ax has, with 10psi in its front tyres.
Bearing in mind its only 720kgs.
Fantastic little run about last year ... great fun driving past people that
were stuck!!!

This year i used the bmw 730i, 1600kgs of dead weight, but behaved itself
in "winter traction" mode.
