    I spoke to the dealer again today and he said one side of the sway bar was different to the other. I take that as yes this one has the ACE fitted.

    Can some one confirm this?

    Cheers

    Matt,

    You were on the money with your first comment, if it has ACE fitted the brake fluid reservoir instead of having one cap has two as in your picture. 1/2 for ACE fluid and 1/2 for brake fluid. The dealer should be able to pop bonnet and quickly tell. As for the sway bar i am not sure.


    regards

    I think you mean the power steering reservior is split in two, one half ACE, the other PAS. Not brake fluid.

    The right hand side of the sway bars have big hydraulic rams on them too!
    VERY hard to miss.
