How are you liking your winters?

Brilliant, the very best amount of money I've spent in ages.  Had a couple of inches of fresh snow this morning and they just took it in their stride, being as the road is an undulating mass of smallish hills and bends I know for certain I'd have been in the hedge back with my summer tyres, but no such problems with the contis.  Can't praise them highly enough.  

What about you?
Best money I've spent?
Ask me in the summer then it's the bluefin but right now the ContiWinters have been totally amazing.
Like a tractor on speed.
I wish I'd known this years ago.
Mk7 GTI. DBP, DCC, Winter pack. Mine since new, July 2013.
GTI no. 4. Golf no. 5.  VW no. 7.

Movi came over yesterday to play VCDS on his golf, while he was over I tried his car shod with snow tyres and I have to say I was very impressed, the car gripped and stopped much better than my golf on summer tyres.

In short it's a MASSIVE difference  :wink:

Won't be selling my Mud and Snow tyred Disco though  :smiley:
