I've only driven MK1 non-pas very light on the move, but weights up hugely parking and if you are pushing on into bends, however to use a cliche' if you ran over a pound coin on the road you would know which up it was, the PAS on the MK1 is hydraulic I believe so doesn't have the same lack of feel as apparently affects the electric setup in later cars but is so light its beyond a joke, it takes forever to realise it has feel because after a non-pas car you assume you have no front end grip, because lightness of that level is usually associated with terminal and painful understeer but once you get past that it does actually weight up when you lean it.
