I've come from owning a '96 RX-7 RZ for the last 6 years to my '04 Cupra TDI 150, and it's really winding me up getting used to FWD again!
The RX had no tricks or toys, it was pure RWD FR layout fun. No TC, stability control, (not even airbags!) it was great!
Had to get something a bit more sensible, and am loving the torque and economy of the Leon (and getting used to not being noticed in the street anymore!) but the traction from a standstill sucks (have rubbish no name tyres - so that will be fixed) and I'm not finding the handling easy to get used to either. I know its a case of adding ARBs etc but it is strange driving a 'normal' car! I guess I shouldn't expect it to be something its not....
