Hi Gary
I make the pilgrimage to the Czech Republic most Christmas's and now run Vredestein Winter 4 Extremes as my winter tyre, my old tyres were hardly worn and I therefore went down the spare set of rims and have 2 sets of route.
That said I kept the winter tyres on until March as they were so much better in the rain and the cold. A mate of mine was so impressed with them he runs them all year round and is very happy.
So in answer to your questions.
1. The Autobahn rules, as I am led to believe them, are you need Winter tyres from Oct 1st to March 31st, all season tyres will not do if you have an accident. True winter tyres are identidiable by a mountain with a snowflake on them.
2.  If I Know, but I think it is a way of appeasing the HSE
3. I gues I have answered that one!
Cheers
