The initially frustrating incident of my spare wheel carrier dropping on the floor just before arriving to work earlier this week proved a useful experience this morning when I drove the car enthusiastically after a looong time. The car has become so much more agile, the inside rear wheel can be lifted a lot more easily now (great feeling!) and the rear end has become a lot more playful on lift-off, the car is just fantastic and so addictive to drive! Ditto, I drive like a grandma on my short daily commute and it has been a while since I stretched the old girl's legs but there is a definate improvement on 90-degree bends which can be taken sideways now without any understeer while the oversteer is so predictable! All this while staying on your lane and at speeds much lower than the national speed limit I used to run without a spare wheel in my old sorrento 8 years ago but when I bought it back as I didn't have a garage I had to keep it in the car and I had forgotten the difference it made. If you haven't tried it give it a go, I am in love with the car again!
