Re: The O/T thread! I would say the original Mini is right up there for being one of the best handling cars. Also, my sister has an original Ford Ka and it's a hoot to drive.

Re: The O/T thread!  For me, handling wise from a factory it has to be a Mini 850 with drum brakes, and big bus steering wheel. As for road car's that've been tarted about with, the Bamboo I had, when it worked was probably the best. Handling shouldn't be compared with grip, and if it's grip we're talking, then any 2cv will do. The ultimate driving experience, which was a good handling car, which did exactly what was asked of it had grip when needed but could be 'unstuck' easily, and even when 'out of control' was still beautifully controllable, then it was my mates old starlet hotrod...

Re: The O/T thread! Maybe you could bottle it and sell it as suspension lube.
