Evening!

So, disclaimer, I haven’t driven a Mustang yet (test drive is on Monday!)

But I was on the M40 yesterday morning and I caught up with a black Mustang. I stayed by it a little bit observing the very strange ride behaviour.
It was almost oscillating! Front-end would rise as the back-end would dip, and then the front-end would dip(not return to level) and the rear would rise. It was very peculiar! And looked rather vomit inducing.
Has anyone else experienced this? The M40 can be pretty rough but every other car around was moving normally…

This is a much discussed problem here. Search bouncy ride and find one of our oldest continuous threads. Usually only a problem on certain roads that have regularly spaced expansion joints. Consensus seems to be that it’s less in a GT and not a problem on the GT-PE.

I've done over 30000 miles in mine and I'm used to the ride, passengers that aren't, hate it. People say it settles down after a few thousand miles, not sure that's the case or you just get used to it. My mate has an EV6 and the ride is nothing like ours...
