The Roadster was a popular hire car when I worked at the factory. I don’t recall one being in an accident and a wide variety of people drove them...including women 🙄😉. A few mentioned the Rev hang but most never noticed enough to comment. I’ve driven the factory cars and never had an issue with Rev hang although it was obviously there . My 3.0 was worse and that was the price of a heavy flywheel.
In any car there’s always the temptation in a wild moment to give it too much welly, the lack of driving aids can sometimes bite you in the bum no matter how good a driver you think you are. I’m average and don’t mind admitting it.

May be the worry of all that power biting back made me sell Nero and end up with a 15 hp Austin Seven Ulster with barely any brakes. 🙄. I may not go scare myself going fast but by golly I’ll scare myself stopping!
