This car is advertised as being standard

that's on lowering springs IMO, RS2 / Avants look like they are on stilts normally

[trevithick]

Lowered compared to mine (all original).

Not sure how that is standard, mine is on S2 Avant H&R's with RS2 shocks and sits higher than that - about midway been that and standard I'd say.

unless the shocks are cooked in which case there is nothing but the springs holding the car. In the very early days my car looked like this,but shocks were stuck to their lower point. I know shocks are not there for the height, but they do have some addition to it. Proof that when you fit bilsteins sports for the first time, the car seems to sit slightly higher,and gradually drops a little

Thats standard for sure, as is mines!

Thats standard for sure, as is mines!

Your car is higher than the original post there are gaps between the arches and wheels where as the piston heads car has virtually no gap

I meant Terv's car.

PH car looks lowered.

[trevithick]

If mine was as low as the PH car I suspect the cornish lanes would finish off the exhaust (it can hit now). Nice looking 2 there Smith S2.
