It will be interesting to hear the view of those who have owned 8CS & TCR at the videos concluding remarks?
That’ll be this idiot then
I only had chance to whizz through the review, I’ll watch it properly when less busy later/at the weekend.
Steering wise they feel much the same to me but bear in mind I’m still running the car in and can only use it for commuting (which is admittedly on rural roads at least). But I can’t really tell the difference between the steering between the cars. Then again I’m not a proper driver like Henry and certainly not a qualified reviewer so I’ll go with what the man says.
In all other respects I agree with Henry, pointless changing between the two as you gain little for a lot of expenditure and lose quite a bit in the form of user functionality (looks are arguable I suppose but the nod definitely goes to the TCR for me).
