Well you can feel a difference no matter how sceptical you are. If you haven't tried it, a rear anti roll bar also makes a BIG difference to the driving characteristics

I had one on my old LCR and it made a hell of difference in body flex and roll. I had it fitted before my rear arb too. It was a solid bit of kit and Mike was great to deal with.

To say it makes a huge difference is just ridiculous, the vast majority of your cars weight sits between the 2 front turrets, during harsh cornering this is what is flexing, the rear will flex ofcourse but the natural torsional stiffness of the leon is good, I think from previous calcuations it sits somewhere between 16-17. A rarb will increase and improve upon this but a rear strut.... for the money it is completely pointless.
