needing to investigate my slightly 'bouncy' front suspension which might need money spending.

That can only mean your dampers are fooked!  Arn't they the KoniFSDs?  How many miles have they done?  :huh:

....KoniFSD's and they've done just under 50k miles. Surely they should last longer than that. The extra grip now being delivered by the Quaife diff probably won't help the dynamics, yes?

....His fastest way might be Frome down to A303 > A34 > M3 > M27/A27 > JKM. Or Frome > A36 > A27 > JKM. My ex wife comes from Frome.

If I was visiting my rents in the midlands, I could have joined the convoy easily.

As it stands, I have drive out from bournemouth, around soton and over to pompey.
