Winter Driving
Hello… I live in cottage country just outside of Ottawa(aka SNOW)… And recently sold my house where my Jag F-type R is hibernating… I need to remove the car… And although the road Is plowed it is very hilly and I'm not sure that the original tires on the F type although AWD will be successful in climbing these hills…Has anyone experienced Road handling with the original tires .. little worried .. that it will have zero traction ?
..thanks for your input

I've never driven my Jag in the snow...but a few years ago I had to move my Boxster in the snow with the summer tires on it (similar tires to the Jag for me) - and it was not fun. I had to turn the traction control off to get it back up my driveway as I needed the tires to spin. And going around corners? Yikes! Now the jag is much heavier, so that should help, and your AWD....should be okay if you take it very easy....however if it's not far, getting a flatbed might be the safer option and shouldn't cost too too much.
