Title: Steering
Post by: Anonymous on November 10, 2005, 11:53
been drving a friend car whilst on holiday, a vectra sri and when i came back and jumped in the 2 when i got to the first 90 degree turn i nearly put myself 180 lol,  i havnt realised until now that the steering in the 2 is EXTREMELY lighter than any other car ive driven, not complaining at all but just thought id have a quick check that this is the case and not an issue with my steering, (tracking etc)

thanks

It is light - the Peugeot hire car I had recently had terribly heavy power steering - for the first week or so I really struggled! Then as you said, when getting back into the '2 it was a case of oversteering for a minute or two until I had adjusted again.

Try an oversteered Renault Scenic; the steering is far too light   s:? :? s:?
