Went on a 100mile or so round trip this weekend for a wedding and as nice as it is my back is now driving me mad, and thats before I get to the major problem, the ride quality. Ive had some stiff cars over the years, even a couple on coilovers but this just takes the biscuit. Im convinced a tooth that is now hurting is from the harsh ride quality! Maybes im just getting old or too used to driving Volvo's I dont know but I cant live with it day in day out which is what I need.

So majorly regrettably in some ways its going up for sale. I was planning on keeping it and making a trackday special out of it, but id be stupid to destroy such a nice example, will just buy something much cheaper and in worse condition next year for that role.

Thanks to all who welcomed me on here been good whilst was on and I will probs be back next year asking how to strip the insides out of another one!

Will get an ad up in the classifieds by the end of tonight.
Can you not give it a couple of weeks ? Just to see if you can get used to it . I came out of a Citroen Xantia estate (yeah ok bring on the mickey taking !) into my ZS so you can imagine the difference in ride quality but after a couple of weeks i was used to it . As for the seat I dont know chap but i have my seat slightly more forwards than what i would normally and i find it very comfortable but we are all different ! If it comes to it hope the sale goes ok .
