Seems to have improved aerodynamics, windshield wipers missing too so perhaps bit bad in rain

Some of those aerodynamic improvements should be possible to implement without too much of trouble, don't know how much those would help, but every bit of lost wind noise is good, right?

I want a front splitter like that!! I'm gonna make it out of plastic and pot rivet it to the lip! Every time it gets windy, I feel the steering push around and it's not nice.

I cured that with new dampers all round and new GLT front springs, tires and tire pressures affect too, but all that set now I have had not issue anymore with that one.

But when driving over 160kph car is quite restless and then such would help, somehow it feels like front of car would rise or get lighter with speed.

I knew the 340 diesel was very slow - but it set a record?!
