F***ing brilliant!
I was hoping some kind of an improvement, but the feel I'm now getting through the wheel is sublime.
As the tyres just push past their limit and into understeer, it feels like I've got a chunk of tyre rubber in each hand and I can feel it slipping and tearing across the...
I can't stop mine doing it since I've started left foot braking. Weight over the front, turn in, bingo.
I can really honestly say I've never ever felt it though. I can't understand what everyone says they can feel?
Sadly very little.
As before passenger seat and airbag next...but apart from that there's not a great deal that the car doesn't need.
Smaller battery maybe, lighter suspension possibly, but after that I'll be adding weight again with a cage :(
Your having to pay for this work and the warranty cover's not the main issue here KDF, they are plainly in breach of their contract with you. If they were not in breach of contract then you wouldn't be having these conversations with them as there would be no fault that needed fixing!!!

Very capable, cheap to run, fun to drive, motorway/back road commuting tool.
Now mine's retired to a life of track abuse, if I...
Not quite the £150 you were looking for but not too much more...I got one of these from here...

Multiple inputs so you can hook...
Mike explained it in detail to me...no idea what he said though. Like the acoustic valve IIRC, it does something, but the ultimate functioning of the car isn't affected without it.
To get comfortable with leg reach to the pedals, at 6ft 1in without a spacer the wheel's too far away.
I'll find out properly as soon as I get it all back.
I'm seriously considering doing that, with a well worded letter.
With all this and a few technique and line changes since I was...
