Ph1 track 172
the problem is, when you lower them so far, you cant drive them nearly as hard.
it would be completely pointless having a 2.0L engine in mine because you can so rarely open it up!
Also with a non-sport (especailly 1.2) there is no point chasing performance mods, just a waste of money, so more money has to be spent on cosmetics, and making it look as good as possible.
Finally non-sports are cheap to buy, and get parts for. Being low can damage things and require work.
If i had a sport, i wouldnt lower it nearly as far!

Had the worst experience in mine yet on Crimbo eve.
Local retail park, first speed bump...got stuck. Had to reverse, nearly ripped the freakin' bumper off in the process, then got over it second attempt.
Huge line of cars behind me etc. Not great, but I looked cool...

This is as low as ya can go bodywork wise on new tyres 215/35/19 s it sits just of ground at rear and on worn tyres it rests on the street. Had to modify the front once they introduced ramps in my street. took it up at midnight one night with battery grinder a cut off what i needed to get it over ramps. Finally give up and installed air bags so i didnt get stuck anywhere. Its the gold one in picture.
With slight inflation the car will drive. Came second in a lowest car competition to the bottom picture. Think his plate says all.

Bags are for fags.
Static is where it's at
I've grown out of liking stuff that's as low as possible now though, it just doesn't look that great. Not on Clio's anyway really..

Was built by the same guy around 2008 ish but the gold one was built way back in 1999 at the start of the bodykit time. so yes bodykits are old hat but show me one from that time that still stands out?
The white one in the photo has to win as you cant fit a 20p piece between the gearbox and the ground trying to find picture to prove it. Will post as soon as i find it.
