I was very happy in my MR2 roadster in the winter! (with hardtop)
Would probably not be any less happy in another MR or even RR.
Steering feel in that car was great too. Felt every little bump in the road through the steering wheel.
Could go from one side of the country and over the mountains to the other without issues and problems with step hills thanks to it having more weight over the rear wheels. But yeah, it was a bit more nervous than a FR. And a bit short wheelbase did improve on that. .
If not doing any spirited driving MR would probably be better than FR when going through a town in the winter based on my experience.
