The rear springs are WAY too soft from factory, and the rear end sags badly with 4 adults and nothing else in the car. Shock absorbers seem to wear quickly and the ride quality / road handling ability in mine has deteriorated significantly from new.

The first GD Tourers came with stock European tuned suspension, it wasn't until later on that it was "Australianised", do you know which suspension your Tourer is running?
rustynutz - I'm not sure. I was led to believe if they had the multi-link independent rear that they were the Aussie tuned version. That said, mine was purchased not long after they came out so I don't really know - it probably is a very early build though.

I think even the current Tourer still has the Euro suspension as does my 3dr, the ride is a bit more comfortable with the Euro tuned suspension imo.I also thought it was only the SR that received a dedicated Australian tune
