Worst suspension in car ownership

Might not add much to this discussion but - when my left rear damper leaked out all of the oil (might have been like that from the start) I didn't make any notice about it. The car was soft and floating around in the road as I like it to do But one thing I rember is what I would call "bump steer", every time I passed a sharp bump it made the car change direction slightly especially when cornering. Reference for Newbie69 - Going south on Essingeleden at tomtebodakurvan there's one expansion joint that made the car bounce a few centimeters sideways.

Drove like this for several tens of thousands of miles without thinking of it, I thought that it was a characteristic of the car. One day I speeded a little bit and drove over a sharp (low) bump on the highway at 160km/h and the car began to throw it self from side to side - this was the moment when I realised that everything wasn't as it should be... Took a look at all four dampers and could clearly see that the rear left damper was covered in oil.

After damper was changed the car behaved a lot better and gone was the dangerous behaviour.

If the car behaves badly it might be something wrong with that specific car, not the design itself.
