That's great news :-D Glad you are sorted and enjoying the driving

Hi Guys, A little late but never too late. For future readers and reference I let you know that my problem has been solved. Despite her perfect looks when bought, the car needed som serious maintenance like rubbers and control arm included cam belt change and tires (Pirelli's). The strange 'spaces' if felt when steering have disappeared. Cheers

Well done Mike!!! Everything comes to he who waits

Got home from the rig and the nice people at Swansea have written to me. So right now I am the proud first ever owner of AP12 VXC! Weirdly the V5 says 'first used elsewhere in the UK', which - if you've been following this - we know is B-S & is what caused all the faffing about in the first place; Guernsey isn't in the UK or EU. Never mind, tomorrow will transfer the GAS plate over & that is finally that!

Hi. I recenlty did all bushes on rear springs. Mines Grand Voyager 2007 stow and go. Best to remove whole spring with shackles attached, easier to remove shackle bolts and cut big bush out. I changed all smaller rubber bushes on rear shackle as well,you have to reuse bolt sleeve if buy just bushe kit. One of mine wasn't great, fitted it. I'm still try to find a supplier for new sleeve. Also replaced roll bar bushes and links. Id also check shock absorber bushes, mine where still good.

Thank you all for replies. As a reference it's good to know that they're not exactly precise, so I know I probably have to get used and adjust my expectations. The 'City' steering is not active when speeding over 30 km's an hour even when the button is active. As said, I don't like the sporty tires but they're too good for change yet. When worn out I will first seek tires (ideas welcome) known for comfort, I hope to report back after changing them. If that doesn't help alignment would be the next step.
