What is the difference between Audi quattro and BMW xDrive? Which performs better in bad weather situations and which has a more dynamic drive?

Depends on the model. xDrive tightens up the front ends of 1 Series - 5 Series as well as making them less tail happy. quattro behaves differently on different models of Audi, but gives better turn-in as long as you tuck the car in tight, otherwise they understeer. The way the centre diffs work is similar. All are dependent on all the wheels and tyres being the same circumference.
From choosing the right tyre to what to do when it goes wrong - we have the answers.

Can anybody answer if the 2007 Suzuki Jimny is prone to skidding on a wet road surface? My wife skidded on leaving a roundabout- speed circa 15mph - and the car ended up facing the wrong way.
