Very tidy @Jules Looks stunning . Exhausts are great

Thanks @StudleyGlass It has been a labour of love and a lot of hassle but slowly things are starting to come together. I need to get used to how low she rides as kerbs are not liking me very much at the moment

You have done a lot of work there @Jules. cant wait to get my wheels and suspension done but as you say careful carefully as you go... What suspension have you gone for ?

These pictures are showing 40mm H&R springs. I have now taken these out and reverted back to the original Caravelle springs which were already 30mm lower. I had a set of Yokahama (275 40 20) winter tyres on there but they kept rubbing under the wheel arches and grounding out on any bump at over 20mph; it was a nightmare. So I now have the original springs on and a new set of Accelera 20's which seem to have alleviated the problem. She drives beautifully (although drinks a lot - see thread in MPG section) but the ABT body kit is causing me lots of grief and grounds out a lot! I obviously need to get used to it and quickly!!

 

[StudleyGlass]

Sounds all good
yep these euro 6 lumps like there fuel Glad mine is a 150 but saying that only getting 30,s short journeys to work.

I'm going to bite my tongue and just say "nice colour." Anything more will land me in big trouble.

Well played @Polzeylad you've managed to get yourself balanced nicely on that fence

Can you let me know when I can get down? My feet are cramping a bit.

 

[DaveyB]

Come on then polzeylad, jump on down. Little and often; slowly slowly catchy monkey, don't want to stress you out too much on the first outing.
