| marcellus, I'm sure the newest VW Caravelles are FWD and both VW and Merc do 4x4 minibusses. We rent 2 Caravelle 4motion busses for the winter and they are absolutely cracking in the snow when shod with decent tyres. |
Ah yes the 4x4 ones are.. but also very ££££

I'm pretty happy with my BMW, but I hear good things about the new Legacy Diesel... might give it a look if/when I ever need to change. I love driving my BMW but I do like the idea of a 4wd (all Subarus are 4wd right?).

blakey, Punto, FWD, skinny tyres, good choice. Hopefully it'll have winter tyres too.

Not often you see the words "punto" and "good choice" in the same sentence  ... But yeah, should be fine if there's snow. Just make sure they give you chains too, just in case.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Had a punto hire car a few years ago, picked up from venice airport where the hire-companies seem to have never heard of chains, and drove it up into the dolomites: coped pretty well with the conditions, although keeping control when descending some of the passes was a bit nerve-wracking.
