the steering goes heavy cause there's no assistance to move the oil about so you've got to force it around yourself
though it is drivable but not easy lol

I liked the fact that when i didn't have power steering i could feel the road a lot more. went round a roundabout and could feel when it was just about to understeer

Pfft, my daily driver has no PAS with a 4:1 lock to lock ratio. And no girly ABS brakes or airbags.

Got towed 15 miles without the engine on. The steering wasn't the worst bit, the brakes without the servo are the worst by a mile.
