Not had alot of experience with RWD saphs, i've owned a 4x4 for 8 years and it's definately a safer option, i.e it won't quite go sideways as much as a RWD "by accident", BUT it still does happen alot in a 4x4, it's by no means fool proof, it will go arse out on demand no problem. Also, one of the things me and my mate were discussing and i agree with him on this point, IF you are trying to show off in a 4x4 you generally have to go faster to get the same efffect, so if you lose control it will be alot worse.

I've still got my 4x4 and i love it, but i've just bought a RWD saph aswell and i like driving that alot more.

It's technically slower but it feels quicker. Oh and if your going to make it reasonable power, i say don't even bother with 4x4, the added costs of fixing broken transmission parts or buying indestructable ones is a pain in the ass.
