You'd swap ends reguarly with it that low!

The rear must be on the bump stops.

It'll feel like it handles on rails but in reality you'll lose grip very quickly.

i agree, thats too low, you lose all the fun of actually driving the car as well with it that low, my mates 306 was similiar, bouncing around all over the place, little pot holes turned into a massive problem.

agreed, same height as steves old one, that way you get the advantage of it not looking wank, without losing the abilty to drive it like its supposed to be driven.

Yeah is around the same height. It also needs a new bonnet, the current one has stone chips and I mean alot of stone chips

Also, the arches have stone chips which is annoying

my mates was only lowered about 30mm and the centre section of the exhaust used to catch.

It was a bright yellow one and had cyclones on it when he bought it which looked sweet then he bought some Team Dynamics black multispokes
