    Is it likely to be able to cope in snow and icy muddy roads

    I did'nt want a large 4 x4 and after doing a bit of internet research thought a Daihatsu YRV 4 Trak might be a suitable option for me. Ive bought one - like it very much but am a little nervous about testing its capabilities. So can anyone advise of what my YRV could do ? Can I drive it across a muddy field ? Would it handle well in snow and icy conditions?
