Many thanks gentlemen.

been doing all my recent driving in a horrible horrible corsa. :(

just took the 340 armchair out for a trundle, seats are super comfortable, but i managed to mount a kerb, massivley oversteer on a tight right, and managed to almost scare the beige off an old lady doddering across the road with a small yappy dog. :oops:

i think the corsa has made my skills dangerously weak. :?
