Some 740 Questions

[imbecile]

Some questions for you knowledgeable chaps about my car:

B230E: Can run on both leaded or unleaded. Apart from hurting children, is there any advantage in leaded petrol? Similar question for whether I should use super, given the ratio is 10.3:1 or close to that anyway.

Tyres: When I come to changing tyres, any paticular recommendations? Any advantage in any of the recommended sizes over others? 185/70 on atm btw.

Fastest Acceleration: Autobox (ZF). For fastest acceleration should I just floor it, or shift manually?

Handling: This is more of a generic car question, but how do I encourage less of a tendency towards understeering?

Thank you for your time...

I run unleaded in my B230E. I dont know what the advantages are in leaded petrol (if any) but mine runs sweet on unleaded
