Think I would leave the RRS at home and take something else FWD down the motorway.

What??!!  2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders
2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed

Now you mentioned it, I did try snow mode in the RRS last winter.

As you say it dulls the throttle. And I quickly switched it off.


I must try sand mode in the summer


There's a great video on youtube of an RRS towing a Lorry out the snow
Forgot about that. Will find it later.

It was squirming all over the place, but was doing the job










kinda answered my own question there

By “dulling” the throttle it was doing its job, it will only let you have enough power for the traction that is available........ but once you are off and running the dullness phases out and you eventually get to the stage where you can return to highway/ normal mode. If you are having a problem finding some snow to practice on find a muddy field............ oh forgot, that might make your car dirty......... 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Yeah I have tried it in a bit of snow. Forgot about that.
