That was classic!

I love Top Gear!

Tires make a huge difference, with snows any car can be halfway decent.

Hilarious!

Volvo's been trying to design a car for years that total idiots could drive-- they just need to put Lamborghini's system on full time (w/no option to turn it off).

I loved how he was flooring the accelerator, see-sawing the wheel-- and all that was happening was the car was s-l-o-w-l-y moving along, not losing control, going about 5 mph!

And the end was great, too-- Ice donuts, anyone?

Most new decent cars will do that. Heck my friends 13 year old S class with ASR and ESP acts like that if you floor it in the snow. All it does is retard the throttle and break the wheels individualy to keep you straight. That car has AWD which helps, I am sure they use some sort of power transfer system, probably electronic diff's.

I don't know much about Lambo's new AWD system, but since Volkswagon owns them its probably similer to what Audi uses.
