first time i've driven in snow, and its surpirinsly easy with LR's traction control... drove up to Epsom Downs with no issues at all. Without wanting to look too smug, i helped a few struggling cars to the side of the road, jumped back in the RRS and off we went... OK i was driving cica 10mph, but a no point did i feel like i was never in control. Brilliant... more snow please!

Low will be OK in snow that deep Lemm, just avoid 1st low which is best left for going down steep and slippery hills or climbing sand dunes in UAE. You will find that if you can get the box up from low 2nd to lo 3rd and then maintain a speed in low third that HIGH 2nd will be able to cope - the problem is the loss of momentum while changing from low to high! Unless you get really stuck and need to start wrenching the steering wheel from side to side or really weelying the motor in low gear, best to leave the DSC ON as well. Once stuck switch the DSC off in snow mode so the ECU doesn't limit the engine revs when you need them.

HDC on any slippery surface can be like having a nagging wife sitting next to you "Slow Down! Slow Down!"
