Lowest Clio Ever????



It is Freds and its the lowest on conventional suspension. There is a lad slightly lower (only at one end i forget which) but that car is on airbags.

the lad on airbags CAN'T actually drive the car unless its raised about 40mm = cheating

Seen that Addz. It's orange nowadays though isn't it? Either that or it used to be orange and now pink. I get confused easily lol. Think he's from Huthwaite anyway. And yes, it's stupidly low!

i remember this. i chatted to the owner/s of this car at the meet. was low. oh look u can see ballcrushers beast next to it :) voom voom
 
Oh and the lowest Clio ever was Little Newms' Cup when I first fitted his coilovers and they settled more than I was expecting. ;)
 
winston,

mine touched the lighter top on a clipper when fred set it the first time (with the cup splitter on)

i think that dans was lower.

however, freds IS the lowest, by a long long way IMO.

Andy (GDi) raised mine a bit last September when Cambridge Motorsport set it up IIRC before TGP.

it will be back down there, once the "boys" have been at it ;-)

that'll be mine, unless someones clio has gone through the floor

He's trying to find out who has the lowest car not the biggest bumper which creates the illusion the car is low. ;)
 
If its dropped 40mm its proved the point, lol. As EvilJohn said Fred's is dropped about 100mm front and rear. You may have less clearance on the front bumper but the car isnt actually lower. Not having a dig just saying.

also if you look at that photo the front wheels of the car are low down in a rut, with the camber of the road angleing upwards making the car appear lower at the front.
Not having a go though lad, ive done the same thing in the past;)

Glad you said this, as most of the latter entries have all been splitters etc. Front jacking point should be the gauge as it's a fixed point on all models.
