I love our 2013 GTS86 auto but at 70+ years of age the wife in particular hates the hard ride. Can anyone advise on modification to make it like (for instance) a Golf GTI which seems about the right amount of suppleness for our taste please.
I am thinking trying different springs first then dampers but have no idea about rates.
