Default Suspension and Handling Question

HI eveyone.

Just bought my First Volvo 144 at Auction. Car is very very straight no rust, complete original condition and runs like a dream. ( also bought it for a song).

No the only Issue i seem to think it has at the moment is that suspension is Really really soft. Are the 144's usually a very soft ride, to the point that u nearly fall out the window going around corners due to excess body roll.

Am i looking a Spring Shock replacment? or just shocks first up. Any suggestions would be great. At this stage i am just looking at keeping car orginal, just want it handle a little better.
