Rich is right, we don't usually have bad snowfall in the winter, and I am probably being extra sensitive about it because of the unusually heavy snow we had last year.

I have already bought front and rear socks from autosock. I figure the day I need them I will be REALLY glad I spent the money )

I suppose winter tyres can only be a good thing, and will be balanced up by the reduced wear on my usual tyres. I would just have no idea the best place to get a low cost set of 18" wheels and how to make sure they fit my massive car

I know that this time last year I was driving a 2008 330d Convertible. The damn thing would not go anywhere as soon as there was the slightest bit of snow on the road, and it spent half of january abandoned in various places near to where I live. This car feels like it will be an absolute nightmare in the ice and snow...
