I'd always wanted to do it and now was the right time to do it; drive my Cadillac Brougham in winter at the New Year's Eve! Because of the snow and the salt on our roads I usually don't drive my Brougham during winters, but I've always wanted to do it and now the weather was just right - not too much snow and so cold that there were absolutely no salt on the roads so I did not have to wash the car when I returned it to the garage. The most annoying job to do was to replace the summer tires with the winter ones in cold dark garage with no other lights than the halogens of my dad's car on the front of the grarage. Those winter tires which came with the car when I bought it, are really impressive. They are some kind of studded all-terrain/off-road tires with broad wide white walls. In addition to the tires, the car does have another set of hub caps. They are not the wire wheel ones that the summer tires have, but the plain standard ones. Much more suitable for winter driving than the wire wheel discs.

Me and my friends found that the Brougham is excellent winter car, atleat for the occassional use. There were plenty of heat and the drive was so comfort than always. Very nice experience and I might want to enjoy it later again. By the way, we had the only Cadillac in town, there were absolutely no other ones!
