Of course it would! You came out with me! Mind you I was PROPERLY pansy driving in the first session, was a little cautious of things going wrong as it was pretty much all my own work that went into the car... do I trust myself? Hell no!

Your LCR's called Shed too? 
I know you were driving like a low flying cloud on a mobility scooter mate. I ended up instructing you and we got a bit quicker lol 
I'm getting a few bits on order this week to the tune of a couple of grand, should transform it a bit  lol

Ape have you got any thing in the way of a strut brace for the rear. I just upgraded shocks and springs but, still feeling the handling can be made better, may upgrade eventually to the the Cupra R front set up for suspension. As my cupra is different. Still need to fit my Brembos too
