no big deal as long as your careful and let all the fiesta's and other s*it with 55bhp cruise past. i drove both my Mk1 MR2 and MK2 Turbo in snow and was fine. the Mk1 was the most twitchy ironically! even the BM can be a bit twitchy in the wet, but i just apply the power smoothly and steer gently and it's easy ok. do miss the wreckless-ness and easy-ness of FWD in bad weather sometimes but i'd rather have the nice feel of RWD in the dry and it's a bit more involved in s***ty weather too which keeps you awake :)
