I've run up 14,000 km on the MCAs.

The car has been driven over all sorts of roads and the suspension performs well. The car tends to be bit more "pitchy" on rough/undulating surfaces - probably due to the different spring rates from OE. However, the handling is vastly improved over OE...IMHO.

No "crashing" over sharp bumps like the OE system produces unless it hits the bump stops - fairly rare and only on really rubbish back roads or badly pot holed sections.
