Yea it is a big drop but to be honest the vtr kept breaking and costing me loads of money to fix all the time
I only had the saxo since Jjune and i had 3 bottom arms, suspension and wheel bearing along with other things 
Yea i love this car now, it comes with gold wheels, exhaust and the body kit, its how it was made so im happy with it

16v if it is a MK5 with a Zetec engine!
Charlene - make sure you check your oil at least weekly and make sure it has the right stuff in, 5w30 (iirc). Those engines are prone to wear and expensive to replace (not what you want to hear I know), just look after it and make sure it's warmed up before you boot it.

Yep make sure you check oil as said. Seen quite a few with big ends gone due to no oil. And you cant buy the bairings seperately for these engines!

Because the engines, iirc were made by Yamaha and two people, without prompting, at different times in one day said the parts are "like rocking horse shit"!
