    Hi, I am in a minor panic. Yesterday I took my wife for her first ride in my new Marlin Sportster kit car with its E36 325i engine and running gear. She loved it BUT ----- she felt it was a bit "juddery" over country lanes and uneven main roads. The Marlin has limited suspension movement but...
