Same here the standard Sei Sporting has opened up a whole new world for me I can drive to the local shop now like normal people and visit places i havnt been to for years!! AND...ive got a car with a boot!!

what on earth are you talking about you two?

i hear you talk of "unlowered" and "standard" cars. I know not what these words mean though

 

[Helz]

AND...ive got a car with a boot!!

If you can call it that, barely enough room for a weeks food shop in there

even less space if you stick a 12" sub in there, and then basic tools, oil, water, coat, torch and jump leads

 

[smurfhead]

I'll agree with you on that. My boot is totally utilised in that way.

it's worth it though i'm sure. :slayer:

haha, i did warn you mate!!

couple of days after i got the bumper fitted i held up a queue of traffic about 10 cars long because i was doing about 3mph over some speed bumps.

thing is, they couldnt see the front of the car obviously, so they thought i was some kind of super cool granny with a janspeed pipe

Brighton Shopping Centre Car park is a nightmare, Every one i go over i crunch when i go over, not good! and im only on 14s with 40mm springs!

i wouldn't dream of driving into a shopping centre car park. Normally just the angle of the in/out ramps is enough to scrape my car

same here.... the one in basingstoke is ok, but ive got a black mark on the underside of my front apron where it scrapes and the paint has worn away

i'm normally ok coming onto them, its at the top where the road suddenly levels out. it grounds the car in the middle of the underbelly. had to take one at speed once to be able to get up without getting stuck.

i love my car

awesome....

i couldnt imagine bein this low and on 13's, ive already bugger an exhaust clamp from it scraping, it rubbed the nut away and came loose, and i have a tiny groove in all 4 tyres from them catching on the arches during cornering LMAO

...barely enough room for a weeks food shop in there

It's easily enough if you have Tescos deliver it for you! Incidentally, as a certain Wrexham-based forum member works at my nearest Tesco, I wonder if I could arrange it so that he picked my order, and I accidentally ended up with more than I ordered...
