they were taken before the 5mm spacers went on and 195/45/15 tyres! droped it a bit more after that :eek:

Buy a decat? Will then no longer be the lowest point on the car...

Surely it must have handled shite like that though?

lol they monster truck tyres were 195/50's too was just because it was so low with tiny wheels!

on the right road it out handles my 172 (standard dampers, eibach sportlines, eagle F1s) but on a bumpy road it bump skiped all over the road lol

it already has a decat on it lol just a home made one using a standard cat, its the flexi pipes it keeps bursting

i do lol im attached to it, as nice and as fast as the 172 is the looks you get when driving a car that low is awesome and its 10x more fun down a backroad than the 172 because your arse is so close to the ground lol, and well 15" wheels, no more said lol just need to get some more power from it, supercharge it, turbo charge it or something stupid for a laugh

yep dont like the 172 its pish lol load of money for something that gives me half the fun! the 1.2 will flip on its roof before the tyres let go!

dont get me wrong if i had the coilovers, polly bushes, and tiny wheels on the 172 it would be an animal but i just find it to sensible and boring to drive lol

Sell it then and keep your money! I loved my 1.2 when i had it too, first car and all. But to say it's more fun than the 172 is a bizarre one! Considerin you've got decent springs on it! The Fk's you had on the 1.2 were crashy as hell too!

considering selling it but i would miss the low down torque, so thot about a diesel but then would miss the noise of a high reving engine! and would also miss the nice heavy steering on the 172

the coilovers wern't crashy when they were set soft, i just prefered the sharpness of the steering when they were harder ( steering was kinda un responsive tho, bit better after the bushes tho!)

really tho its just about moving on, once the 172s payed off (hopefully soon!) then ill be able to afford coilovers again so might give them a go

possibly just the way its been resized or possibly the camber the wheels sitting at, these pics were taken before i took it to get the geometry set up
