Andorra 2011 Range Rover Sport 3.0 TDV6 HSE Fuji White

i live in a ski resort in the winter..........

and in all honesty... i´ve never once needed snow chains... just a set of good winter / snow tyres......

Police are quite relaxed wit 4x4´s here with snow tyres on..... even though it´s law to have chains in heavy snow

Continental winter contact are LR´s and my choice ..... but Pirelli Scorpions are excellent as well

Of course you may need them for something more hardcore.... but thought I´d pip in.....

I once went to the Alps with my new H2 Hummer..... special snow chains ...20kilos each one..... on board....

When I asked for assistance putting them on..... they laughed at me......

Never again !!! 2014.5 SDV6 AB Dynamic ... Fuji /Santorini Pan roof and 22's

We have just come back for the Alps for the second time this year. Lots of snow, but didn't use the chains once (Thule k summit XXL). friend with an ML without winter tyres had to out his on several times.

Low range for down hill worked really well with the Scorpion M&S tyres. I had been concerned about not having full winter tyres, but the RRS performed excellently. Uphill is a breeze with the TR2
