After my first hours of ownership I noticed one thing about the steering.

While at speed it seems fine, and I like the fact that it doesn't auto centre to harshly as it makes you drive the car..., at slow speeds it almost seems like it's understeering and then sharpens up. The car isn't sliding so I'm assuming it increases the steering ratio once you have some speed up.

?

 

haven't got a clue on that one!

 

It was at very slow speeds, barely moving.

The only other thing I can think of is that we sometimes get very shiney bits of tarmac on roundabouts that allow you to slide and you don't even know it.

It was the roundabout just before Maktoum Bridge near Oud Metha.

 

The S2000 doesn't have variable steering, unless you have a VGS model

 

The tyres?

 

Fronts are OEM with plenty of tread and the rears are new michelin pilots.

I shall investigate further when I'm not stuck in my office

It could be as I mentioned above, some of the tarmac is very smooth and slippy especially on roundabouts.

 

VGS?

 

Honda make a Japan only Type-V model with a VGS (Variable geared Steering?) steering rack. You can tell if it's a VGS as it has a funny shape steering wheel with VGS written on the bottom of it.

It's definately not that. many thanks though.

As I've only had a miles in her maybe I'm being over sensitive.
