Re: (CW)

What suspension do you have, are you on lowered springs?

Re: (russ)

Very lucky to find it used, the front was done before I bought it, whatever it is it, looks and most importantly drives so much better than the stock S40s I've driven, very well done, no rubbing etc... back is just lowering springs, not quite as low as the front but only a few mm off.

Re: (CW)

Looks a very similar ride height to my S60 and that is on eibachs, getting some rubbing on the fronts now so am looking for some spacers to try and help.

Today I have been mostly driving a C30 T5...<p><IMG SRC="http://img252.imageshack.us/img252/1769/photo0105wk6.jpg" BORDER="0"><p>Couple of weeks ago it was a S40 2.0D<p><IMG SRC="http://img517.imageshack.us/img517/522/photo00771jg3.jpg" BORDER="0"><p><br>The C30 is a nice motor - the 2.5 engine certainly makes the right noises and after around 80 miles of mixed road driving today it is certainly going to be a hard choice to make as to what I am replacing the V50 with.<br>I still have to consider getting the dog around, which in the C30 is going to be next to impossible (unless I drop the back seats then we have a 22kg furry missile sat behind us!).<p>Something is telling me to get another V50 then when the dog has gone to chase heavenly bunnies I can then get a C30...<p><br> <IMG NAME="icon" SRC="http://www.vwvortex.com/vwbb/confused.gif" BORDER="0"> dot com....
