I know the tyres would be expensive, but surely cheaper to buy smaller wheels with winter tyres, unless the brakes are too big for that.

ANY and EVERY ESP is intrusive on my driving style. you can turn it off completely in the meg but it comes back on after 30mph. It's a ballache and i would rather drive something that owes me far less money when chances of crashing etc are significantly higher.

Comes on after 30!? Pointless, can do far more than 30 in snow... Big Grin Most I've had don't come back on until a restart, Focus included.

The chances of crashing should be reduced with ESP when driving to the conditions, unless you really drive like that much of a lady garden? lol I've had loads of near misses in 306s (particulary the non-ABS ph2 on budget tyres deathtrap, or the ones with knackered beams! Confused )...can't think I've had any in the Focus, it just kind of steers and stops as you'd expect (boring, I know). EBA is awesome as well, literally don't know how it can stop so soon in emergency situations. lol

Look tom, i know you have an answer for everything. But i dislike ESP, its my cars and i shall do as a damn well please.

On a dry road with good tyres, the megs ESP and ASR are faultless. Stops the back end wandering like a boss.

In the snowy / icy / damp / greasy country roads of wintertime around by me, you really do NOT want the ESP interfering.

Fair enough, shame it can't be properly turned off in your car then, 30mph is a joke. Tongue

Didn't think you were far enough north for the days to be so short already? Tongue

Completely agree about the esp when driving in a spirited manner; you'll go to correct a slight cornering misdemeanour then the esp comes along with a massive grin and no lube, fecking lethal. Tbf i guess it is designed for people who can't drive in the first instance, got a feeling i'm not going to like that lane departure funkiness either. lol
