I've already been warned by somone who lost his Plus 8 in the cold and went gently through a hedge backwards into a field....

The Plus 8 has such an excess of power and torque that the application of power needs to be done with care at all times, in some ways the Auto box helps as it isn't as easy to make a clumsy gear change and so brake traction, although the auto box can change down at less than helpful moments!
