put another approx 1800km on the odometer.
pulled the back wheels off to see where they were hitting properly and realized i need new rear shocks. Now just gotta get father to call a few mates up and see what they can do me a set of bilsteins for and compare them to courneysport and lmfvauxhal.

Thanks Gman,
I'll give it a go, I have the tyres already, just gotta pay for fitting and balancing.
When do yours scrub? mid-corner bump?

Fronts mid-corner on hard lock and mid corner bumps..
Rears only on a serious compression or when seriously loaded up mid corner or weight wise...

well, that doesn't sound too bad, it's not like it's going to occur frequently. Anyway, tyres are free, so may as well try it out, my aim is increase the height of the front- it is seriously low.. and compliance.
anyway, the SRiT is with my future father in law for about a week, he has crashed his RAV4 and is borrowing my car while his is in for repairs.
he can't drive a Rav4 properly. I don't think my lowered Astra stands a chance of him not scraping the front bar... though we have warned it is very low and to use the 'expensive' petrol..
I'd rather him damage the astra than the GTI. Gee sounds like I don't care about the astra
