Apologies in advance to the senior members who will have seen these before. They are more intended for the newer members that may not have seen / are not aware. Still good viewing in any case

Here are the links of Jeremy, Tiff Needell playing with the X on snow / ice.
Also there is an advert for the X where a snow plough FOLLOWS the X...lol
And another one for ur viewing pleasure!
Check them out

Did anyone else notice during the ski slope video that the car that drives down the slope is a sport model, but at the end when he is leaving the ski area, he is in a non-sport X-Type? Take a look at the chrome on the bumpers. That will give it all away.

Granted, I also found it interesting that the UK gets a 2wd version of the X-Type where the US only gets an AWD X-Type.

Thermo, top gear does that all the time, they'll use one version of th car for thier tests, and a different one for presentation. You will b able to pick up on it quite easily if you have watched alot of thier videos ( like me lol).

I liked the fifth gear one, i just wish they had tested the awd verio insteal of the 2.
