The only changes are the Kinematic Posture Control (KPC) that applies the rear brakes very slightly to take advantage of the anti drive geometry of the rear suspension to reduce roll on cornering, wireless carplay, and trim changes.

Engine is unchanged. They're trying to sell me a new car as mine is coming up for 3 years old but there is no reason I can see to bother.
Thanks for the reply, I did change and have noticed a difference in the performance and exhaust note, glad I changed.

Believe the carplay is not wireless, not tried it yet.

I had the lowering springs fitted which has also made a difference.

The light nappa leather has made the interior appear bigger.

My previous one was a 2ltr Sport Nav+ and the new one is 2ltr GT Sport Tech

What do you think of the sports suspension over the regular setup? I have a sport tech coming in September and am wondering whether or not to get it. Grateful for your review.
Not sure if this was directed at me, both mine had the sports suspension, however the lowering springs added to the latest car make a hugh difference in cornering, also the wheels fill the arches better
