TBH not sure if even the oil burners in the uk have it - not like snow is a real problem

I'm pretty sure my 170 has it ;)

....Use Manual mode for engine braking or leave it in D-mode, or apply the brakes very gently indeed (and relish the fact that AP Racing brakes have a very direct pedal response feel).

Going uphill I found that the Quaife was amazing at instantly extinguishing any TC light flickers and restoring traction (was at slow 20 mph speeds on totally ungritted A-road).
