Mine on 255/35R20s (Michelin PS2 with loads of tread) was bloody awful in snow/ice - ABS was going mental the whole time and I nearly wrote it off driving it home from the dealer!
My A6 is much better, probably due to extra weight and less panicky ABS!
I found the acceleration side of things no problem in the '8, but stopping was pretty scary stuff.
I'm just going to leave mine in the garage if it snows and take the Mrs to work in the A6 so I can use that if I have to. She hates driving in the snow anyway so it'll suit us both, apart from the silly early start to clear the car and get to her office....
