Uplink - all the pedals in a car make it go depending on how you use them.

have you considered lighting a series of enormous fires above it thus melting the snow around your car with the resultant warm water, be quick though! ๐Ÿ˜€

Just like the numpty woman who was trying to drive past our work with the handbrake full on and front wheels spinning like mad this morning

This happened to my car (I wasnt driving, near it or involved) I reckon - the rear drums, shoes and tyres are destroyed. Its a corsa and I think the person borrowing it put the handbrake on when they parked it and didnt realise that the handbrake froze on and thought they were stuck in snow so gunned it up the road...

Rob, if you were anywhere near me I'd fire up the old Quattro and drag you out.

I'm near Glasgow BTW

you are facing downhill, on a slope, i presume you are trying to reverse out?
i dont THINK youve specified anywhere?
if not, dig out infront of the car, and let it go!

in my experience, the best thing to use would be a grenade or 2?

we got a warthog stuck on a slippy slope once in halo, but a few grenade under it got it out of the hole and then we flipped it back over with out bare hands and continued on our way (inflicting the gaus cannon on americans)

No probs Rob.

I remember in my old mk2 Golf driving 120 miles home from my parents (who get proper snow, huge drifts etc as they're out in the middle of nowhere) through blizzards, taking it easy and it must have been around 3 and a half to four hours only to get stuck 3 metres from my drive in my own street! LOL

Good times...
