  1. You shouldn't get blown all over the place. Your front end needs a good looking at!

  2. Boges are fine...if it is your shocks. Bounce up and down on the bumpers and report back...

  4. Lol.
     
  5. @snotty is right, get your steering and suspension checked, either by Alex or at TE, or both. Having said that, I really wouldn't panic, as you already know from experience, they do blow around a bit in the wind.

    Koni's are excellent, my Boge bounce tested ok on the Bug, but the Koni's were a big improvement, sorry. I guess it's the old what you get what pay for thing... I don't know what magic Koni do, but, like you, I balked at the price for the Bay and bought Spax :(

  16. Romped back from That Bournemouth in the dead of night, up a gusty A31. Didn’t get blown around - it can be done ;)!

    My fave time to drive…almost a whole motorway to myself…

  18. Taxed it. It's still a satisfying feeling paying nothing even though my daily driver Volvo only costs the grand sum of £20 a year:)
