One thing that prompted me to get the Evoque was possible winter problems in the forseeable future, although I have specced 20" style 6 wheels.

I have had the experience day on 19" rims and was blown away by what it could do (1st time in a 4x4 capable of that!) and came away convinced I would be invincible in the Evoque Wink

Am I kidding myself that it will be fine on those rims and tyres in the snow ?

If you drive according to the conditions I am sure you will be fine...
Very Happy

You are kidding yourself that you will be invincible........................... 4WD cars might be able to get traction better than non 4WD equipped cars but you cannot stop any better and often in bigger 4x4's your stopping distances are hugely bigger because of the weight of the vehicle.
As Spiderman says, drive as carefully as you would in an ordinary car and you will get further, just don't expect to also stop any quicker because you won't
