Hi Dan, I found slow corners no problem in second. It actually seemed easier to drive. 1st goes out a lot further and even though my poor old engine is tired and smokey there was more than enough power to take off.  Had to slow down for a few roundabouts, took it in second and just drove out easily. Its so nice not hearing the old grey scream at low speeds. She was really happy at 60mph. I reckon she is way better now on those long gradual climbs. I tried to test her out on all scenarios. Couldn't fault it.

Rod.

I'd like to see one landed using the gps used in phones. Plus or minus 5 metres ain't quite good enough for position. Whereas the speed uses the Doppler principle rather than position. Same as the old police radars.

Sorry bout hijacking the thread Rod.

Thanks again for the feedback Rod. Positive results for sure. I'm about to change tyres ( currently to small) but if I'm still not 100% happy diff change for certain. I think you have provided food for thought for many people with your road test results.
Cheers
