2.5 isn't much slower than 3.0, and I'm guessing the saloon handles a little better than the estate?

No, the estate has the sports suspension setup but......the saloon is a manual and it makes all the difference for good cornering control....

Hi there.

Estates sometimes need a wee bit weight in the back to make sure it all sticks when it should.

And drift out a tad when you want it too!!

Welcome

Thats why it has a 16 gallon fuel tank.....its tractio control fluid.

Did hang the back end of the estate out on the ring road in the wet on tuesday night with Laidback66 behind me.....it was very much a traction control off and play with the dam auto box job though.

Yeah, trouble with auto is if you want to play like this you just haven't got the power control...
