Gareth,
Saw your pics of Goyt Valley, looks like fun, I hope they pay for the D3 rescue teams patrolling there!
Question - Was everyone there on road tyres? Some of them look a bit more chunky on the pics. If so, what was the difference in the tyre performace.
Cheers

I think TFC was on Coopers, but everyone else, including me was on standard tyres. They were very very good, with no apparent advantage to the Cooper shod vehicle.

Sounds good. I was expecting Scorpions on mine and then found that I have Wrangler M+S all Weather 19's on mine, maybe because of the TPMS (at least that's what the dealer thinks) on the road they don't seem any different. A bit more of an aggressive tread than the Pirellis.

If you have a V8 then you have the need for speed, snow is not going to stop that.
