True. I used to thrash my clapped out '98 Citroen Xsara in the wet and on loose surfaces (it didn't have enough power to hold any kind of slip in good conditions). The thing had such horrible dynamics but I got used to it to the point I knew just how to make the back end step out and carry the momentum, though it always seemed like an iffy prospect.
My new Civic, while really a bit of a posh and very un-lairy affair, is much snappier and needs a much harder tug and pull to get it sideways, but it's also much more responsive, and straightens up on a dime.
