Mike Edwards 0 Posted April 14, 2006 Refreshing to hear some common sense*! Now, if we could just persuade a few of those addicted to lowering that the car handles better when it has a reasonable amount of suspension travel...:) *Kev usually speaks sense before anyone mis-inteprets that statement - and his car is about as low as you want it to be for reference.

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 14, 2006 Mike, mine has been jacked up since that pic was taken, I just like that shot for some reason :-) Agreed on suspension, people need to focus more on roll centre, roll axis and castor than ride height ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mike Edwards 0 Posted April 15, 2006 But you're driving what is reckoned to be one of the best-handling VWs made. If you're ruining the handing for the sake of looks, you may as well slam a Lupo - it's not like you've lost anything... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted April 19, 2006 Difficult to get the looks and handling balance right. I'd never go quite as high as standard VR6 again but VW got it right, despite the huge arch gaps making you think otherwise. If they'd used slightly firmer dampers and a 25mm rear ARB from the off, then few enthusiastic drivers would bother changing the suspension. I can slide a coke can between the arch and tyre gap on my mate's EVO 8 but it's fastest point to point car on the planet ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
