    Would love to see and hear owners impressions of driving their Bentleys during the winter and experience in the snow!

    Pix would be great too!

    Cheers!

    In SD we only read about snow in other parts of the country, but on the occasional winter rainy day, my AWD GT is my car of choice.

    Give me a month or so and will let you know how CGT does in 2+ feet of snow with Blizzak LM60s. From what i have heard, they are geat in the winter due to 4wd and weight distribution.

    Will do. Sadly, am in fear of driving her on iced over lakes for fun and as a car control clinic as i did the 308 due to the sheer weight of the CGT.

    Agree the car is massive and all that weight would make me nervous if I wanted to do some power sliding across a frozen lake bed too!

    Met with a friend of mine who drives his Spur all winter and says he would much prefer it over any Land Rover in the snow!

    As soon as we get snow I will get some photos!

    ;)

    Not quite snow, yet high winds and a lot of freezing rain today and the CGT was great. Expect snow pics soon...
