because people say that is not possible to drive a car that 'low', but guess what it is..
just because the wheel is in the arch etc.. (like my old corsa)

its still easy to drive with, i still had a few inches undeneath clearance, didnt catch any speedbumps..
low is when the underneath is low to the floor not the huge splitter...

I don't know why anybody drives a car that low. Look stupid and the ride is horrendous even if anybody who is low always claims it's not.

if you have had a car that the sump/wishbones/gearbox mount is an inch or less off the floor then fair enough..

ye because you just dont park there do you its not exactly rocket science is it..
cant all go round with our cars lowerd 60mm or less can we..
thats why its good having your own money to spend it on your own car to make it how you want it to look..
i photoshopped the car to how i would have it..
if you want to photoshop it aswell then your more then welcome to and i will most probs pick bits that i dont like, just a huge circle..

I think your full of cr*ap mate. How can your wishbones hit the floor? They are and always will be just over half way done the wheel  
And talk about blow your own trumpit
Sorry but you sound like your abit of a looser

you cant compare a mk2 golf to a corsa. they're completely different chassis set ups for a start. the corsa lower arm mounts are no way near the floor and the exhaust manifold mount would be one of the first things to hit the deck. Im not taking anything away from that particular mk2 because its a lovely car.

its obviously not going to be just sitting on the floor is it "what a turd"
but when driving, over bumps or a curved road it scrapes, my wishbones are about the same off the ground as his..
another example..
