Tried all the settings on the diff and it made such a big difference? The tyres really do help too. As long as you take your time its brill up there. Even I was restraighned up there.

Now that's QUALITY Dylan.

I went for a spin up Storey Arms last Friday to see Pen-y-fan and that was stunning but the roads were clear. Neath > Hirwaun > Brecon > Sennybridge > Dan yr Ogof > Ystradgynlais > Neath.

My outside thermometer was showing -8 this morning while even in the garage it was still -4

I bet up the hills it was even colder, great for the intercooler though
