Time for a dodgy day.
I drove this car on Thursday night. Its the kind of thing which can't be picked up straight away. Needs to be dríven for a bit to be picked up or noticed. I wasn't any help to brenno. I was probably too occupied with the difference of manual streering & Power steering. & I just drove it around a few round abouts & a few corners.

Just an update for those that were interested. I booked it in at the local shop and had the Superpro bushes fitted. They found a loose top ball joint, and a loose steering rack assembly.

They said the bushes were fairly shot, even though the previous owner said he changed them in 2006. Whatever.

Anyway, the car tracks straight now and from the brief drive this morning it appears the steering weighting is the way that it should be.

The biggest thing I noticed with the new bushes is the better ride! Bliss!
