How deep is the snow over there? Would, say, an Audi Quattro with chains cut it?
With the exception of the smaller mountain roads that aren't regularly maintained, that would be more than enough vehicle.
Well, a 1998 A4 1.9 tdi is good for 40 mpg - a good improvement on 8 and 15 or so.
A new A4 3.0 tdi (good for 0-62 in around 7 secs) does about 35 mpg.
The alternatives are out there - they just aren't being used/sold.
