Ordered some low spec H&Rs today. Will let them settle in before doing some spacer measurements.
There is a local White gti on coil overs sporting some serious tuck but I'd be happy just removing some of the ridiculous arch clearance....whilst being drivable

Nice.
If you dont plan on lowering, at least put in the cheap 4mm rubber pads for the springs on the rear. The oem are 11mm, so it comes ~7mm closer to the ground.
Heres my bluegt with oem suspension and the 4mm pads.

Good solution! How much

Hi All,
Just picked up this.
Really impressed with its mid range performance for such a small car. Manual with park pack, light & sight, discovery nav, car net and climate.
Thinking of the HG Motorsport air intake kit has anyone installed one yet?

Mine must have been on a different ship as ove just had update that the car has arrived in uk.
Out of interest how long have people experienced from arrival in uk to pick up from dealer?
