Here is a TV advert we had in the UK at launch of X Type

There are loads more with X Type in snow eg drifting in the Alps
I was wishing I still had my manual 3.0 AWD last week as my XJ (RWD auto) nearly slid into parked cars going up a hill with a slight frost.Had to keep slowing for speed humps and just couldnt get going again.Queue of cars behind, so I had to pull over, let them past, reverse into a side street and go gingerly back down the hill and take a long route around which wasnt as steep.My X Type would have accelerated up the hill no problem.
