It's not actually all that low to be honest - really I would like it a little lower at the front but then I don't have any issues with rubbing or speed bumps at all so it's a good compromise I guess

If anyone knows anyone who would interested in the springs they are now for sale in the classies
I agree the drop on them.does look nice. But the rears sit so low which confuses me. As this picture I found on instagram is of the h&r 35/55 springs and they don't seem much lower in the rear?

Yeah I was just thinking those springs hardly look any lower than the 20/30 ones I have on my car.. I would actually say that I think those are the 20/30 springs and not the 35/55 ones..

Does anybody have any experience with wheel spacers? Would rather like to widen the track a little, mainly for aesthetic purposes..

Soooooo, after a 4 month wait I'm lead to believe that my car is landing in the Port of Tyne tomorrow afternoon and @ShaunP 's car has landed in Grimsby!!!
You wouldn't believe how excited i am! Im like a 10 year old on the 24th of December at around about 7pm ahaha
In everyones experience, from arrival in UK, to arriving at dealer and the collecting how long has it been?
Reason i ask and am so god damn impatient is i won a photoshoot next Saturday, the dealer knows this and is going to do their best but obviously the need the car to get to them...
Whats my chances?
Cheers

Mine docked Thursday morning at 9. Got the text Friday saying its in the UK and the dealers emailed me around 12 to say it's nearly with them and now have the text to say it's with them. So 2 days to go from docks to retailers for me. Hopefully pick it up late today / Monday [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16]

Mine was really quick but it moved from Grimsby Docks to Grimsby VW so probably not a good example to use lol
