The Duke of Dunwich and surrounding fiefdom
For any who are interested by my FF on occurrences in Rhun and beyond; I have begun a new project (not because the old one is finished, just opening more room for ideas) about one of the minor characters, Rankal. It is in the Third Age AAR index and here is the link http://www.twcenter.net/forums/showthread.php?t=376994
I am highly skeptical that the Celtic chariots had suspension systems.
Here an example of the parts of a Celtic chariot:

Believe me, I have also seen 'evidence' of Celtic philosophers, Celtic rocket science, and other things. As of now I see no evidence for chariot suspensions, until you provide some scientific evidence.
I imagine the Celts did have philosophers. They were called "slaves". Plenty of time to think when you're cleaning !

so, one will chariots be included and then, two, will the suspension be included (Sig seems against it, so I doubt it) but in any case will they in anyway reflect possible use of suspension in a way noticeable to the player?

With out proper suspension seems like you'd be thrown from the chariot if you used it anywhere in europe :p
But I dont know anything about the subject.
