right i used to have a lowerd saxo vtr and many people might say they arnt put together very well but it did handle well.
ive now got a 1.6 corsa sport and it was hopeless round corners.
ive now lowwerd it 40mm (yes only on springs but still)
ive gone from 185/14's to 195/15's
and still it isnt that good at handling.
is there anything thats easly done and can help.
one of the lads has a corsa c and that handles like a go-cart compared to mine now nevermind when it was standard and his corsa c is standard.
any help would be good. cheers.

more than just springs required, better shocks, rear arb, good rubber, depends how much you want to spend.

my old xe'd gsi handled like it was on rails,
50mm drop all round on g-max suxpension
195/45/16 yokahama tyres
Camber set right for the hight and tyres
Rear arb
Only thing i wanted to do was put a front strut brace on it to improve it even more.
Reason your saxo handled so well is because they designed the car just right for handling and becuse its mainly made of metal packaging you find your take aways come in
