Too Low?

Featured Replies

Not my cup of tea that car scene business of slamming it to the floor. Pensioners already grind my teeth by going slow don't need anymore slow people taking speed bumps at 5mph

Not my thing tbh, although I'm not overly fussed if someone else wants to do it to their car

Little update, I followed the car for a while in one of work's vans the other day.  I established:

 

1. It doesn't have air ride.

2. In fact it doesn't seem to have any suspension travel at all.

 

It bounces around like a 5 year old in need of the loo and presumably in order to keep the drivers teeth in their proper place, requires a slalom style approach to driving (either that or the driver was completely pished).

 

At one point he drove on to the wrong side of the road to avoid a manhole cover which protruded ever so slightly above the tarmac.

In fairness the state of the roads I drive like that in any car let alone my own!

 I avoid potholes on the off-side in all my cars so long as its safe although this would seem a little extreme. Mind you when the Golf was lowered I lifted the middle section into the slight transmission tunnel installed to facilitate production of the Country

 Can easily traverse all but the tallest and most illegal suspension wreckers now. 

There's a guy who delivers food for the local Hotcha near me who's polo is a low as this. Personally I think it's far too low to be practical so I see no point in it.

Each to their own I guess :)

Wonder how it manages to fit onto the MOT brake test rollers?

Lowering that low is pointless. Changing suspension to imrove handling fine but that IMO is moronic. It still has to work as a car.
