I have heard that that particular car is a pain in the ass to get low, trying find coilovers can be quite pricey etc...

Congrats chenn Very Happy

What engine is what mate? Mines only a 1.3 MPI, ive got front shocks and springs yours for £30 one needs a top mount that's it. I'm pretty sure the fronts are the ones phil j sells on club polo and he charges £350 for them the rears are ta technix so nothing brilliant but I'm happy to be able to adjust now

having seen the old girl and can kind of see what you mean......

i would camber the rear a couple of degree get the top edge of the wheel in looks to steam roller'esk from the rear

and either get the front down another 20 mm or jack the back the same

you need more 'nose down'

as well as your planned front end spacers which may necessitate some rolling of arches mmmmmm


only my humble opinion feel free to ignore

yes you can buy shims they go between the stubb axle and the rear beam,

or you can go 'yard style' and use a couple of washers on the bottom bolts

it will make allot of difference to the look
