What a waste of a test. They didnt bother to test all the well known winter tyre brands and that gives an inncorrect result picture. Rolling Eyes 2007 Freelander 2 HSE TD4 Manual with Premium Pack & Moonroof.

I suspect they were also testing car tyres as opposed to 4x4/SUV tyres. I also suspect they went for tyres that are commonly known in the UK which may not include the well known winter tyre brands that get discussed on here. I may also be wrong on all counts.
