I have heard that the back end can be a bit light in the wet, although it will depend a lot on your tyres and their condition and pressure.
I have never had a problem, as mine is fitted with a LSD from the factory, and I have never been ble to spin my rear wheels under any conditions.Rob
Still working for the man!

I had mine step out on me twice,
Once was leaving a roundabout thats a b!tch to find a clear moment to go, so gave it some juice...
second time was turning into my locals car park... just swung the back end out..
So it does happen an its mostly down to just too much power given the circumstances.

Give it a wee while and you will start doing it on purpose going round corners.
It is one of the reasons I like the surf you can drive it calmly like the powerful vehicle it is or you can thrash it round corners and spin it in carpark and scare all the neds and boy racers that you might hit/scratch there toy cars.
Just take your time and you will learn how far you can push it before it slideswww.merkinchlnr.org.uk

Cr@ppy old tyres, or muds are generally bad. There's a junction near me where my back end snakes around as a matter of course. Learn to controlo it and enjoy scaring other road users,
Or get yourself a Micra, you girl!
Oh, and thats WITH an LSD.Cutting steps in the roof of the world
