Will our new-to-us (09) Clubman be good in snow?

Sorry for the misleading title , I just wanted to post pictures of my wife's HC Clubman we bought last spring. This is its first winter, and this is its first week not covered in a garage during snow (we're skiing). The snow is still falling on it as I type this, I may not be able to find it tomorrow.

To anyone looking to find out if Clubmans (Clubmen?) ARE good in snow, our experience so far: Yes, but I wouldn't want to do it without good snows. Ours has Michelin Arctic Alpins on a second set of rims.

I just got 12 inches of snow and ice. Snow tires really helped out. Now go have some fun.
