My verdict on Kuhmo Ecsta (or whatever they are called) in a fully laiden Omega in the wet around twistys....


....bloody awful.

[I_want_an_Omega]

I had these on something befoe, and seem to remember them being rubbish :-/

I rate the Ku31's.....question is, are the suspension components on this temp vehicle ok

Suspect it could do with a trip to WIM, but front feels a bit wallowy to me.  Then, it is barge Elite suspension at the front (non self levelling Koni at the back).


The grip is OK in the dry, but just loses everything in the wet - it wasn't the front or rear breaking away, there was just no grip anywhere.  Shame, as that road from Bala to Portmadog could have been sooooo much more fun

Oh, dear. In Wales with tyres that won't work in the wet.

Still, every time for me I have a roof that won't work in the wet either.

i wonder if the lack of 'grip' could be between the seat and steering wheel

There was a lack of grip between driver and seat - the kosovans polished the leather

Oh, dear. Not the most supportive seat at the best of times.

Still, a bit of restraint might mean you come back unscathed by the Traffic Taliban.
