Hi guys, the previous owner of my car lowered it, I'm trying to figure out how low it is, any ideas?

Just checked the handbook and it says that the standard height is 1432mm. I guess that is measured to the highest point of the roof. Will get a tape out tomorrow and measure the wheel arches to the ground.
 
here is the official standards,,,1425 from the bottom of the wheel to the roof.

Missed your post Dave, you must have posted a split second before me!

Might be easier to measure from middle of wheelarches to ground, possibly more accurate than from roof. I'll measure my car tomorrow and see what I get...
 
Took some measurements today, could only estimate the roof height, but measured roughly at 1340mm...

Book states Base, Super & Van versions are 1415mm (SX and TD versions are 1425) ...I think.

So, 1415mm - 1340mm would make them -75mm lowering springs, right?

From ground to wheel arches are:
Front: 560
Rear: 535
