lol... should be fun, just hope the weather is on our side on the day...

I'll be the one in the black rain jacket with huge red NURBURGRING lettering on the back :D Nice and Subtle - NOT

Just easy to find in a crowd at car meets :p

EDIT: Oh and the two huge graphite viper stripes down the car - lol

And if I'm there I'll be the one with the lounge with pop wheels :p
 
:yeahthat: Me too. I'd be interested on this as I have no desire to tear-arse around the Nurburgring but a more settled ride would be nice.

:yeahthat:
I have R16 multispokes, and also want a little more comfort. I don't want to change the wheels, but would new springs help? Am on a budget so coilvers out of the question.:(

Reading through other posts on this most people are modifying for better handling/lowered look, rather than comfort.

Some people who've lowered their cars have also reported better comfort levels. Tbh if you're on a budget then just save up and buy some coilovers later on and do a proper job of it.

:yeahthat:again!

I don't think we are going to get a definitive answer on the comfort option :cry:
 
why not :confused:

test drive my car and make you own assessment (y)

Its cool to have a test drive on someone's that has been modified, but for realising the difference from a comfort perspective I think you would need to be driving it normally as you do from day to day to see how much more comfy it feels. Its this sort of day to day banging and bouncing going over crappy roads that becomes wearing.
 
For those wanting a smoother ride..... Koni now seem to do an FSD kit which should be pretty good for comfort whilst also making the car handle better.

http://www.koni.com/58.html

Kit number is 2100-4117 and doesn't seem to be on sale anywhere but I'm sure if you got in contact with these guys -> http://www.koni-suspension.co.uk/fiat_c34220_34711_8925_8931.htm they could sort you out with some.

Hope that helps some of our more elderly members with their arthritic joints etc etc :p

You tell em Tony - I'm with you on this one mate - just too many boy racers on the roads these days who think that driving fast is to be enjoyed. hehe! Why don't they just buy go-karts - seems like that's what they are aiming for with their mods. - Only joshing guys :D

I know... I'm just a boring old pacifist - but seriously if I'd wanted a car that corners like a go-kart I would have kept my International Class racing kart - now that could corner!!

Have you thought about those Koni FSD's? :) They're not strictly there to make the car handle better, they also increase comfort ;)

Hi

Yes (y) - they look very interesting thanks - I've emailed them for more info and names of stockists. Hopefully they will reply after the weekend. Will pass on any useful data onto this thread
