Hi, I’m looking to buy a Griff, access to my garage is a bit restricted hence I think that PAS would be useful for manoeuvring in and out. I’d rather not rule out non-PAS cars in my search if PAS could be retrofitted, is this an option and are there any recommendations re who to use?

Thanks,

Dom

If it's any reassurance, I have a 500 with standard size tyres, no pas, and park in a tight garage ( have to add a couple of alignment turns to get in) and it's no real effort. I never think about it, put it that way.

And the bonus is the most direct feeling steering with wonderful weight and feedback. And yes, I can drift just fine :-)

Hi, now the proud owner of a 4.3 pre-cat, drove home 190 miles last night, arrived home at 01.30, parked in the garage and then realised I hadn’t even noticed non-PAS when manoeuvring!

Anyway, off out for a drive...

Good on you Dom thumbup
Rather against the idea of a TVR to give it soft steering, don't you think?

Nice - bet she sounds great. (jelous 500 owner who knows what a 4.0 sounds like, let alone a 4.3)
