What was the mk2 like to drive then?
@LiquidYellDan
Great and crap in equal measure.
Was bloody quick but handled like a boat.
Was a great car to go for a drive in, loads of appreciative waves, nods and comments. It looked lovely
Even though it had uprated shocks and springs and a few poly bushed parts, it was like a wallowy lump in the bends... Could feel chassis flexing. I think I'm just too used to modern cars. I couldn't trust it in the bends. Lol
Would wheelspin in most gears with slightest sign of moisture, due to standard skinny wheels and no diff or electronic aids whatsoever. This made it more annoying than fun to drive... Was only about 220bhp too
Sounded and went well though, surprised a few people [emoji41]
It would have cost a further few K to get it driving A1, with a diff etc, and I couldn't face ploughing more money into it, incase I still didn't like it.
