Leaves on the road? how the hell would they get sucked in? i hope you were joking there m8 
the AWD helps this time of year as well, was getting the power down no problems at 1.4 bar in the wet today.
all the FWD hot hatches wheel spinning their ass's off, the RWD beast boys going round a bend and facing the other way

could never get the power down in my octavia VRS or ibiza cupra, Veccy GSi wasnt to bad though.
Never had the MRS long enough to drive it in dodgy conditions.

He said its a little 'fun' at times in the winter.
