settling is a myth. move the car fowards a bit then back and it'll sit how it's supposed to sit.

It's really not that clean. Dented passenger door, tailgate is rotten around the wiper, drivers door has caught the wing and the bonnet is starting to rust.

how much comfort do you get in a corsa b? from what i remember at standard height it wallows about like a fat guy on ice and isn't comfortable at all. plus it looks better low.
