I suppose that terminal understeer is inevitable, given the narrow tyres and heavy engine and transmission at the front, and on a couple of occasions I have been very grateful that I haven't been going into a corner a tad quicker, as I would have left a Three Wheeler shaped hole in the hedge, and watching this Fifth Gear video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8yYqwa_O2U really brought home to me just how much understeer our little cars do have.

It is probably a fruitless question, but has anyone had a chance to either reduce this understeer or even had any thoughts as to whether it can be done? I'm thinking the most obvious way is to use better front tyres, but maybe the suspension set up can be changed too?

And, please, do not reply saying that it should be driven slower into the corners - I already know that.
