i have 3 estates, one 2-3 + one 2-9 one 24v, the 24v is waiting for work for m.o.t, the 2-3 a new head, but there are some differences to the feel of driving them all, the 2-3 is a ghia, no sun roof etc. but this gives a much softest ride, is there a difference between these models, apart from the 15 inch wheels on the 2-3, i'm wondering if the suspension is different, (spring rates etc.) and also the brakes, the best brakes are on the 2-9 but that could be down to pads, the steering on the 24v is incredibly light, is that normal? just out of interest really guys, cheers Bob

24v also has bigger brakes (discs) although this doesn't necessarily mean they'll feel sharper - that's mainly due to pad compound.
