This may sound like sacrilige to all you rear wheel drive appreciators, but yesterday on a snowy road in my 328is, I pulled into the overtaking lane (where few had driven with thicker snow)and tried overtaking some tiny little peugeot- I must have scared them s*?tless. My rear wheels kicked out at 60mph towards the central reservation, but I managed to control the car with two subsequent skids veering all over the road and a lot of adrenaline (epinephrine to our USA buddies)pumping through my veins and continued on my journey with more caution.
But after all that it made me think - wouldn't it be cool to have a 4 wheel drive E36? Has anyone ever made one using bits from the likes of a nissan skyline, mitsubishi evo VI or a subaru impreza turbo - all known for serious grip and excellent gizmos to get the power to the right wheels in these sort of situations. We have had quite a lot of cold weather here in UK lately and I'm beginning to scare myself slightly. Of course on dry roads the grip on my car is great, but in the wet/ice there is nothing to beat a 4x4...
