Thanks but no thanks; I want to keep some ride comfort.

 

 

The Eibachs drop a further 5mm on the front and 10mm at the rear but are stiffer so cornering should be better.

 

:wonder:

The Eibachs will be nowhere near as stiff as coilovers.

Oh bugger, I meant springs  

 

I also forget there brand new  http://www.upownersclub.co.uk/forum/brand-new-up-apex-lowering-springs-for-sale_topic6385.html

And they're Apex not AP; definitely budget end of spectrum. No thanks. There are some AP coilovers for sale over there but they want £320.

 

Pretty sure it will be Eibach (dealer fitted, factory approved, only slightly lower but firmer springs) or H&R (independent fitted, not factory approved, firmer springs and much lower). The decision may rest on how much alcohol I have drank when I decide to buy.

Mmmm, I really am too old for bone jarring suspension

Me too. My 50 year old bones would prematurely wear out [emoji16]

I'm almost 21! Feel like a right old fart, Christ only knows what I'll be like at that age

An older fart? Pmsl.

I'm growing old disgracefully. Mrs T and I went to the Alternative Music Festival at Butlins Skegvegas last year and afterwards our then 13 year old daughter said "Aren't you a bit old for that sort of thing?" We both just laughed!

 

We have 2 kids at Uni and 1 at boarding school; we are so looking forward to them becoming self sufficient!

Glad my kids are now [emoji16]

Not all coilovers are mega firm. The problem is most people fit coilovers to go mega low these days. When they are wound down really low they are going to be hard. Nobody makes a decent coilover for the Citigo, if you could get one and drop the car say 40mm I reckon it would be an acceptable ride and look good

I have Bilstein coilovers on my van which were not cheap, and although firm it's acceptable on all but poor roads. I wouldn't however fancy running a Citigo slammed on FK coilies!!

A lot of the parts I've noticed recently list for the VW Fox too as being the same. Interesting [emoji6]

I wouldn't mind owning a fox, they can look pretty decent modified

 

They're a cool little car with Citigo underpinnings [emoji106]

STOP POSTING DETAILS OF YOUR MODS!

 

You're going to cost me a fortune!

 

And I need to update my mod list.

 

   

My list of things to do is not that big now (but bigger than it was 2 days ago!):

 

1.   Boot lights (update my PIR LEDs to neater, smaller round ones).

2.   Parcel shelf string.

3.   Interior light.

4.   Rear wheel arch liners.

5.   Eibach springs (or H&R if I get really ambitious).

6.   Gloss black vinyl roof wrap.

Haha yes [emoji6]

Citigos aren't cheap as they say. There's a whole world of parts out there [emoji106][emoji16]

 Fortunately I'm a long way north from you so I can probably get away with it.

I know this excuse! I feel great as I appear to be the only remotely modified Citigo in this entire area!
