    I will agree with that, I went from a HX Kingswood to a TP Magna and could not believe how much larger the turning circle was.

    For some people, it's full lock and pedal to the metal - but not me.

    Cheers for the replies. Seems I'm not alone then. In the dunes it seems OK. Just plant my foot to bring it around.

    Just a pain to park. Seems I'm always taking a couple of bites to get into a spot. I doubt I've got GU diffs as it was stock as when I got it a few weeks ago.

    My mate had a PT Cruiser, I’ll bet that would have to have the worst turning circle of any car ever produced.
    A straight Uturn in my GU would be a five point turn for him.
    Cheers

    I had my 2012 Navara and it was horrendous! I had a Steve Armstrong steering (no power steering) on a old Triton with a small mounted wood steering wheel with muddies that wasn’t as bad!
