    Things to do to get rid of understeer: add some toe out, front or rear. soften your front suspension or stiffen your rear. lower your front suspension or raise your rear. add some front camber and caster. learn to drive around it. Play with swaybar changes or adjustments, and also strut bracing. Different cars have different results when adding or removing a brace, experiment! So many people I know say, i dont want to buy 'this' car because it understeers. You can always change how your car handles, give it a go.

    @@BlatentlyFakeName Audis are either FWD or AWD front biased (rarely rear) which is why they understeer more often than a RWD. It doesn't have to be an 86, any FWD/FBAWD will encounter understeer more often than RWD. Like he said, you can stiffen the rear to reduce understeer because the rear will comply more with the front

    It really isn't that bad, they just require a different technique to control it. The Mk 2's so-called "snap" oversteer is really just liftoff oversteer (which can happen in literally every car, by the way, including FWD), but due to the car's reduced moment of inertia (which is a GOOD thing if you want it to turn!) it tends to oversteer more sharply if you just snap off the throttle. If you ease off rather than snap off and give yourself a chance to feel what is happening it becomes much easier to catch and hold that oversteer
