Engine & bay
1.0 3 cylinder MONSTER
Totally stock, no engine modifications at all
Suspension
Spax RSX adjustable coil over’s all around, 100mm custom rear springs
Wheels & rubber
Bmw e30 wheels, 15x7 et24 on front and back with a 10mm spacer on rear
reara have 165 50s stretched over and the front 195 45s
rear also has loadssaaaa camberrrr !
Bodywork
Nothing major really, clear side reps, checkered bonnet, shortened aerial. usualy run pressed plates but after a few run ins with the feds i run a pressed on front and 'legal' one on back.
Due a few changes soon though, nothing major as I want to keep the subtle look
Interior and Install
Nothing major really, head rests gone, few interior parts painted gold that will be changed to my secret new colour combo 
Infinity perfect 10” sub in a soon to be custom box tuned to 33hz
A something or other amp, always forget the numbers etc but its bashing out a proven 600wrms
Jbl component speakers with adjustable cross overs – need to upgrade soon as really, only thing holding the whole set up back.
Pushing out a proven 130db with the gains still quite low

really not a fan of the euro look.
Wheels are too small and stretched tyres just look awful. Plus, theres no way it'll handle.
You've put alot of work into it and i respect that...i just dont like the look of it all.

tbf antoni's really isnt euro at all and im sure he would say the same, theres a big difference between his and a euro car.

im sorry but read the title of the thread low and slow....this is LOW he hasnt said it euro, its not smooth, and it not really wide, its just low, next do your research before leaving silly comments because all have said is make up information, strech tires dnt effect handling, they have to be kept pumped up to keep the stretch
