This went on Saturday morning... rear drop links, eibachs, front strut (dead smart looking adjustable e-tech jobbie!) and of course their legendary geometry.

WOW!

The ride is smoother than standard at low speeds... which totally knocked me for six as I was expecting to be rattled to death even more...!
The turn in is so precise, I kept turning too sharply while I got used to it.
The back end feels as stable as anything - have felt absolutely no unpleasentness from behind, even when pushing it.
It's much easier to tighten the line on those annoying reduced radius corners that pop up on country lanes from time to time.

Understeer seems to have vanished too... Saturday evening I drove a few lanes with a couple of cars in tow and it was good watching my mirror as they followed me through a sharp left hander and all went over the white line that I hadn't even touched.

Happy isn't even the word for it... If you've thought about this, or want to improve the ride and handling any then I'd give this a very high recommendation - especially for the price and the high level of service TSL always supply. And those lanes round their Keyworth workshop are worth the drive alone

Glad to hear you have "felt no unpleasantness from behind"!
