    When I get the car I'll have so much info and things to explore, I'll be kept busy for weeks. Work? That's a 4 letter word ending in "K"........I don't do any of those!

    Still haven't picked up the little piglet yet but I did find out it's got coils. Should I be disappointed?

    It's one less thing to worry about, however, you really don't get the P38 experience if it has been castrated! Coils are great - don't get me wrong, but they just don't do it for me!

    Castrated? Does that mean it will exhaust with a squeaky burble and have tears in it's headlights?

    It all boils down to whether you can be bothered with the maintenance of the EAS. If you can then its a fantastic device, if not (like me) coils are MUCH more reliable.

    Hi,

    Coils are certainly more reliable and require less maintenance, but IMHO it's just not a P38 any more without the EAS.

    The problem is that most people seem to ignore maintenance on the EAS and that leads to problems.

    Personally I love the concept of being able to change suspension height, to suit the conditions and I also think a P38 on EAS is a far better towing vehicle due to the self leveling

    Not wishing to diss your new toy, but if it was me if investigate reinstatement of the eas. Is the USP of the vehicle. I echo above comments.

    Honest opinion is always appreciated. I can seek counselling if I get offended.
    Ignorance urges me to ask what is "USP" ?

    Yeah. Sorry. Arsey expression. Unique selling point. I love the ride height capability of the p38. And occasionally hate it. Mostly love though. Like any good relationship.
