Hi PerL
Yup, You answered everything else, but that bunny ;)
Seriously; I had a 89-type 2.2E coupe FWD last winter and
found some bad behavior on icy roads after my Swedish FWD.
It is not logical? First it can understeer a little and then suddenly You
can loose Your rear, which was most common action to it.
Yes, very nose-heavy car which oversteers and lets the rear slide
easily. Of course car is better than many others, just wanted to
suggest You to get familiar with it before speeding beside the
fjords.
