Possibly because you were in an lwb transit tbh.
My mates lwb transits scary in the snow.
A 4×4 is a sound investment if you live off the beaten track – we had 4 ft drifts to get out on to the road last year…. Lotta digging to find the road. .
Hence my in town comments – i dont suggest venturing out into the hills in one if you really dont need to but for us its a fair walk to the vilage for the messages if we cant get out, that and 4×4 ing is a hobby 😉
Fwiw its worth having a play with a friend with a similar or bigger 4×4 and a tow rope – see what the limitations actually are.

For some abuse – a budget 4×4 that ive found quite impressive over the year ive had it- so mpressive i just fitted new tires , new disks and pads all round and new non sagged rear springs. Cost me 1k with a years test. Wanted to hate it but it has been a grand old truck.
