As With any car you can not guess where the black ice is lurking :shock:
some members put more weight in the front to give more traction and having lived on the Hill of Knaphill those car with front wheel drive would be stuck at the bottom of the hill and the X1/9 would go up quite nicely
and a very slow descent in the mornings.
Watch the back end in any conditions :oops: if you push it you ll loase it
managed to be spun in Ireland 360 degrees on a road less than 12 foot wide ask our "Joe" the X1/9 span on the road and wheels were still on the road after the performance .....JUST and yes he was pushing it

SOOOOO much fun, if you find a big, deserted car-park.
SOOOOO scary if you lose it on a public road.
Go easy, but have fun where it's safe to do so
