my front wishbone bushes need replacing although i was told there not all that bad as yet but that was a month ago.. my rear bushes are knackered tho.
                                   

Bushes don't get "slightly knackered"  :kiss: change em  :nerd:

The front wishbone bush on the drivers side of my old Beemer 3 series was knackered, and the problem only showed up at around 75 -80 mph (similar symptoms to your Golf Sugar.......
I'm also well impressed that you got yours to wheelspin in 2nd gear!!.....Are you the Stig??

get the bushes changed, in the wish bones and the rear axle, lowering a car with fooked bushes may look nice , but it will wander about even more so than it did on standard springs......
