Hi,
I have a 225 and in the wet it really slides around roundabouts which is a real problem - i'm not talking about when i'm going fast, just normal speed (under 30 mph). The tyes seem fine but i have notice the car skliding on right hand bends - handles perfect going round left corners??? Any advice as its beginning to feel a little unsafe!

check the front tyres, drivers inside may be scrubbed

Re: Problems at roundabout
The tyres have a lot of tred.
Its the back end that seems to come out.

Re: Problems at roundabout
have you changed any tires lately? Changing just one out of the four can cause handling problems due to diameters, more noticable in a car like the 225. best changed as a pair ie fronts or rears or as a complete set.
If not tires, get your suspension checked out. Not unknown on other cars for springs to collapse, damper failure, or bushes etc, due to all these damn speed bumps littering the roads nowadays.
good luck with it

Re: Problems at roundabout
My first port-of-call would be check the tyre pressures then maybe a tracking check at Kwikshit
