Tidy

 

[Rhino172]

looks tidy, wish my first car was something like these instead on the C Reg Fiesta 1.1 Ghia..what a beast! haha (mind you that was about 8 years ago!)

[BioHzrd]

Same car as mine bar tis red...way to get mine lowered 40mm end of the week....

 

[clio*chris]

thanks for the comments people

will a drop of 40 be enough??????????

 

[BioHzrd]

Will give you a better looking stance than the 4x4 but if you really want it to look sweeeeet youd be better with uprated shocks and a 60mm drop down side cost more money

 

[Matta_88]

Looks smart mate, some nice tasteful mods and your away!
I think some BK eclipse would suit that lol i will have a set of PI Springs available after this week too mate.

 

[Mikey]

will lowering it 40 be enough do you recon???

what you want to lower it on mate, im going 40mm on bilstein springs and shocks, low enough for me but with bilstein you get the handling performance aswell as looks!!

 

[Michael172]

16V or 8V ?

 

[Giles]

nice & tidy

 

[TJ182]

Looks alright mate tbh. Next time though, get a half naked bird to lie on your bonnet

 

[GarethM]

nice mate

if your lowering on anything over 16" alloys go 60mm, my old 1.2 was lowered 40mm on 17" and looked high.

 

[clio*chris]

16V or 8V ?

only 8v

 

[clio*chris]

nice mate

if your lowering on anything over 16" alloys go 60mm, my old 1.2 was lowered 40mm on 17" and looked high.

i cant afford new shocks or coilovers so for now its just gunna have to be 40mm springs !!

 

[DebV6]

Looks like a nice little car

Ill throw up pics of mine once i get it donea t the end of the week hopefully

 

[dave99uk]

exact same as my car man also my first car. Same colour and everything. Iv got 17s on mine, lowered it 60mm, induction kit, cat back exhaust, sound system. Email me if u want some pics man davidlennon@blueyonder.co.uk

 

[clio*chris]

hopfully i will have it lowered by 40 and have put on 16's but the 15th of may!!!

thats just after i get paid again

 

[dave99uk]

Do wat i did i dont regret it. Get 17s then lower it 60mm. The standard shocks wil last a few months allowing u to get some money for new ones.

 

[clio*chris]

17's slow ur car down so im going for 16's and 40mm and colour coding!!!

 

[Matta_88]

17s will handle like a boat, slow the car down, make the speedo read wrongly and will cost a bomb for new tyres imho!

 

[BREMBO]

Very good potential, nice car

 

[Darren S]

Good man - forget the 17s.

If I were you, I'd focus on sweetening up the handling and maybe braking of the car. You won't easily be able to get increases in engine power, but you could certainly make it handle very well indeed....

I'll keep an eye out for you Chris.

Mine looks like this:
