You need to be careful. I recently drove an 1800ES to which someone had added a rear anti roll bar. It felt really stable until I got it into a long sweeping left hander. At fairly low speed (50MPH) it flicked from mild understeer to vicious oversteer. Of course the 240 antiroll bar doesn't do this when fitted to a 240, all I'm saying is be a bit circumspect when road testing for the first time.

Regards


Pete
