RWD question

[synop]

First of all, sorry if I placed the topic in the wrong sub-forum.. I just thought this might be the most right one.

But to the point...
I'm from the Netherlands and I really want to buy an 1er, but the thing is that I often go to Norway and Poland, also in winter times. And as I've seen the roads can be really icy in Norway, so in Poland. However the RWD is excellent under normal weather conditions, I'm still a bit scared of it in winter time, since I haven't got any experience with it. I've heard alot of "scary" stories around it, like it would be nearly impossible to drive a RWD car in the snow.

Now I'd rather like to know from you guys, who drive an 1er, how much of it is true? Is it really true that rear wheel driven cars are doing much worse in snowy weather conditions?

My 1er was abousolutly fine in a 1 foot snowfall we had here over the winter. I think so long you have a good set of rubber on the car its all good.
