Dear All,

In general I'm enjoying my 36000 mile 2011 997GTS Cab, but I have to admit I do find it quite underwhelming and at times a bit unpleasant to drive.

The problem seems to stem from the stiffness of the chassis and the suspension. The whole car feels a bit loose, bumps in the road unsettle it so it doesn't feel composed, one bump after another keep it jostling down the road.

I have owned a 987.2 Cayman, 997.2 Targa and 991.1 Carrera S in the last years and they all seemed stiffer and more composed.

Is this a characteristic, or should I get the suspension checked out?

If anyone in North London would be able to show me theirs (car, that is) I would be really interested to compare.

Thanks
Jack

Haha, it's an OPC supplied car with a former owner from this forum...
