Old style rear suspension – I have the new style on order. I was going to pick it up at the Exeter show, but the factory issues have delayed this.
I’m pretty sure it’s the back end – the seat of the pants feeling was identical to that I felt in Ric H’s car, though in my case the sensation was exaggerated by the collapsible aspect of my steering column developing some rotational play during yesterday’s journey. I’ll fit another column at the weekend, and hopefully that’ll be the front end fixed.
I hope the CV failure was an isolated case, else some serious modification will be required, and it won’t be cheap. Grrr!
I don’t fancy moving the engine back too much, as the current weigh split is 43/53, with a wet kerb weight of 750kg (is that the heaviest 5exi so far???).
