Not tried one with 4W TC yet. That would be interesting. Even with no TC it is pretty damn grippy.
 
TC kicks in far too often on mine, bit of gravel on a hill and off it goes clack clack clack:rolleyes:

Don't hear a peep out of mine unless offroad or it's snowing. Can plant foot flat in the wet - no TC - nor would I expect there to be any (not enough power to wheelspin!)
 
I've had the traction control dinging merrily away up a steep slope of slippery mud and wet leaves but I wouldn't say the non-traction control car did much worse. No problem with the brakes as it only blips on and off.

If I had the money to spare and was a living in Finland I'd consider the £1500 to put those Kam diffs on! With chains and / or snow-mats I reckon you'd get through the most winter could throw at you.

Petrol 4.6 might be easier to start in winter. Doesn't it get it a bit cold up there in Finland for diesel?


diff lockers would be great but i think i go with standard. If get a p38 i was a abit worried to get disapoinnted with the 2w tc but i quess they are fine.
Most people also use studded tires in winter.

We have lots of diesels. Shure diesels can be harder to start but almost all cars have block heater or a webasto. Here are also sold 'winter quality' diesel from autumn to spring. It doesn't mush up so easy in the fuel lines.
