Hey guys,

Picked up the car. Loving it, very fast and handles like a dream, one thing i've noticed and not sure if this is normal. The wheel feels like it tries to correct itself as I'm driving which is fine for example turning left it will try go back to straight position but when I slow down to a traffic light I notice that sometimes the wheel will start moving to the right which feels a bit odd, is there some kind of stabilising system?

The car has a year warranty left on it so its no problem to get it looked at + 3 months from dealer I bought it from.

Mine's never done that... Get it booked in and checked under warranty, may as well use the warranty you have mate!

How much did you end up getting the price down to?

Hey, the steering wheel seems to move when left or right when I go over uneven road, not sure if I am just to use to my old car or if its not right, but as you said you've not had that so will try get it checked.

Are all Ford garages pretty good?

I got the car down to £8.5

My old car never had that problem, it feels like the wheel is trying to correct itself like some kind of stabilising system.
