Default Leaving tonight...

Picking up the S6 on Wed. morning. Only concern is the weather in Bavaria -- very cold with some snow, which may be a challenge for the S6's high performance summer tires...maybe the quattro can compensate, or maybe I can buy a snow sock or something similar at the Audi store. I'll post pix and a report on my return.

Default If the weather's bad, sit it out until it clears.

They will plow it quickly.

Audi's are amazing on snow. Don't worry too much.

It may only affect your ability to go up high-altitude mountain roads...if they are closed.

You may want to stop at a Shell station and buy a bag of windshield squirter. They sell it in plastic bladder bags, with a spigot. You may end up using alot of it...though you'll pick up the car with a full reservoir.

Default Don't forget winter tyres are compulsory here if snow is on the ground!

The actual wording of the law is a bit ambiguous but basically the driver of any vehicle is responsible that it is suitably equiped for prevailing weather conditions.
