Lowered

[Bufort]

Hi, does this car I'm interested in look lowered? Its a Sport model, so I know thats lower than the SE, but is this particularly low?

I’d say it’s been lowered 99.9 % lovely looking coupe, CSLs should have been standard from factory!

It does look nice; I'm just concerned that it'll feel like s**t, because it looks like theres only about an inch of wheel travel. I guess stock replacement springs aren't too expensive or labour intensive to fit, are they?

Looks lower to me too.

Do you really want to be buying a car knowing you need to spend hundreds just to get it back to stock. Completely understand if you do, she's a looker. 8)

Yeah that’s low. Maybe 30mm drop.

You should be able to pick up a set of stock springs cheaply, it’d just be tempting to also take the opportunity to refresh the whole suspension at the same time. Shocks get tired, top mounts wear out etc.

Seems like springs are less than £200. Which is a bargain considering I just spent £100 on a single 6" spring for my mountain bike.
