VXR Performance and Handling Problems

**VXR_DV** · 13th March 2011, 20:21

My car isn't what it used to be.

Acceleration is sluggish, and it doesn't seem to want to go around corners in the same way that it used to - it's almost as if the centre of gravity has shifted somehow.

Top speed is down - there's a hell of a racket if I go above 65mph.

On the upside, plenty of people still stop and stare as I drive past.

Can anyone suggest where I should start looking to solve this?
