No worries mate. I am all for a cheap, easy fix. Shame that it doesn't happen very often!!

Yeah ! I could do with a cheap fix ! Lol

Very nice, yours looks how high mine did until I replaced the nivomats with standard shocks, my front end looks higher than the back now.

I will upload a pic of mine without the nivomats to show the difference. I'll have a little search for you but i know how hard it is to find pics, a forum moderator found a couple of mine

??? Have a butchers at a few of my recent threads dude, P2s don't get much lower than mine lol.

This is when I bought it from up your way, north of the tyne.


Bit of a crap pic, but just to show the difference, it's about 40mm lower just by changing the nivomat shocks but I plan to lower it further 30-40mm.


As Mrp says his is about as low as you'd get it without coilovers

[M-R-P]

Any lower and you'll kyss goodbye to your exhaust! I'm already clipping some speed ramps and I have to be careful when I park half kerb half road too.

[dirtybootz]

I like it better on the Police spec ones ! them cars that lick the tarmac do nowt for me as we live rural ! the roads are terrible,find it hard to move on the flat here !

[M-R-P]

the low-vo...

[dirtybootz]

It sits very well !........I will admit ,I would be tearful to drive it here, the potholes would kill it

[M-R-P]

Like this?

Tonight I went out to quote for a CCTV install, out in the sticks, somewhere near Ringwood. I turned down a country lane which was littered with dirt and small potholes. Ahead were two puddles, exactly the same distance apart as the track of the average car and about 18" to 2 feet wide..... BANG.

Oh $h1T...

Luckily, the subframe caught most of it before the sump got too involved and I don't think I'd have gotten away with it if I still had the old plod springs on either...





I drove on the verge on the return trip lol.

Grrrr.

[dirtybootz]

Yes thats the ones !.........also the ones that flatten alloy wheels ! tell the council and your screwed ! they get you back by not emptying the bins for a month ! lol

[M-R-P]

Scumbags!

In all honesty, I wasn't looking to go that low with the car. I know an "ebay troll" who spotted this set of Apex springs with a start price of 99p and told me to offer £40 - which I did. For the price, I did pretty well. My front top spring seats are on their way out now though lol.

I'll eventually get 18" or 19" wheels and bring the ride height up a bit, which would help.

[dirtybootz]

It looks very well ! does it ride responsive still like when it was a service car ? or is it a totally different ride ? I like the ride I have,its a real driving car ! never get tired of driving it unlike other vehicles I drive...........
And on the roof thing ! I would do it .......black it ! .........

[dirtybootz]

I just sold a set of 18s ! Pegasus,you missed them, would of worked well against them wishbones !
