hahaha....no....after I wrote back to you I got told I had to go to The Bahamas for the rest of the week with workbut believe it or not I was a bit gutted cos I couldn't pick up the car!! lol. My wife had to....she came to get me from the airport yesterday night in it....drove it again this morning to work....still feeling it out.
First impressions....nice drop....feels more in control....over bumps before I felt the road like a blindman on his knees....now its noticeably better at soaking everything up.....feels even more comfortable, but at the same time tighter. Will give it some beans on the way home around some twisties, but I suspect its going to scare the pants off me how much faster I can go round them now.
My only niggle so far is that I can still hear a slight knock/tap sound going over small bumps, which whilst more pronounced before upfront, was (I thought) due to the front strut mounts going....now its harder to tell where its coming from (still front-ish I think, just fainter....but still there). It sounds like something is loose after the shocks rebound. I very much doubt its my mechanics fault....but will have to get him to take a look at it with me.....I just can't believe it cos we replaced literally everything....
Glad you like it!
It is tighter, but yet more comfortable! It should get a bit smoother after a few thousand kms or so.
Regarding that noise, could it be the aftermarket strut mount? Like it is made with harder plastic or do you think that sounds more metallic?
