Hello Paul

Looks great cool

I recognised your car/plate.(I was in a Subaru Impreza/Loton Park).

Are you at Loton in 2015?

My car is the KA, it was a 17th birthday present! biggrin
My Dad's is the Cascada, and my Granddad's is the Clio.
Found it fitting to choose this picture, as we all have the same name (I'm John Jr. Jr. lol(

Cheers. They came from the factory with several ride heights but thankfully all run coilovers as standard, so adjusting the back end -20mm is on my list before it comes out of hibernation this year.

Nice to know they come with that level of adjustability standard I am sure a 20mm drop at the back will make it sit just right.

If you do, make sure you get the geo checked.

They're set up for a reason, shame to screw the handling in a bid to make it look better!

Thanks, sure - will do. I have some Hill Engineering joints to go on so I'm going to get the lot done at the same time. Where in the Midlands do you take yours for an alignment?

So the plate should be COV13 OY?

I can't picture how its actually meant to read it just looks really dodgy!
