[Limca]

[moogster_1]

whats it lowered on?

fk coilovers.

 

[Limca]

how low?

 

[Alan]

Very smart matey...

Get yourself along to the next Scottish meet...

 

[moogster_1]

how low?

fek knows, i left in the hands of the laser alignment dude to sort out. i said i wanted somewhere in the upper middle range of the coilovers so i recon between 40/45mm maybe more maybe less, hahaha.

it rides really good though which is saying something driving around edinburgh roads. notice a bit of an improvement round the corners as well. its quite low tbh but if it causes probs ill just raise it a tad.

they are the ltd edition wheels that BBS made for the exclusive. anybody feel free to correct me on this but i think they only made 172 sets for the run of 172 exclusives.

Only 172 were brought into the UK... All individually numbered. I think there was over 350 made in total iirc.

hahahahaha yeah that will be mine. there are only two decent cars parked at that bit and they are mine and my mates 205 gti. its horrible parking there though as the spaces are like a mm wide and no one cares about there car. im currently supporting a rather anoying ding in my drivers side which is clearly from some t**t opening there door right into my car. grrrrrrr

you at hetiot watt then dude?

 

[Mwindow]

Not often you see one of these! very nice

too right. one of the guys from Redline magazine has just bought one. here's hoping he doesn't fit a mingin' kit, 20's and a 'killer ICE install'!

oh yeah, your car looks pukka lowered fella.

 

[lewisniven]

[moogster_1]

yeah the colour is amazing. espesially when its clean and sunny. it really is a scarab type colour changing from green to dark blue.

i love it!!!!

 

[a.e]

you at hetiot watt then dude?

Yeah I'm studying Surveying. I have the williams 3 thats always in the "Cars with low suspension" car park - I don't have a permit. I've seen your car about, I was going to get a 172 exclusive instead of the willliams. I love the colour, full leather and those wheels. What you do at heriot watt?

hahaha funny i was well tempted by the williams, but decided on the 172. im errrr doing a phd in physics at the mo. hence the permit.

how do you feel about us getting charged a £1 a day to park there next year? im thinking of holding a road block in protest if your interested. its goign to end up costing me 215 bucks a year! day light robbery!

 

[DebV6]

That looks lovely! Not really seen one before.

Same i'm NOT paying a penny. If it comes to it i'll park in the open fields next to where you park or in the park in ride or on the roundabout grass or by a £50 car and just not pay for parking. Haven't decided which one yet. A road block protest would be fun :rasp:
