Indeeeedy doo Its not drivable whatso ever, its an accident waiting to happen to be honest, It drags you across the road like i dont know what due to the camber being so far out. You hit a bump and the back end skips people look at you very funnily which is amusing, But it seriosuly is not safe to drive at any speed lol.

Nice to look at, Aweful to drive.... Wheel bearings will be dead soon as its running on ET25 + silly camber = / \ lol

lol Aye theres a local lad with a Saxo round here and its on the deck at the back and the rear of it jumps about all over the place

Original alloys on it so no silly offsets but it jumps about like mad

Crazy. Looks good but I can imagine how badly it drives & how inpractical it must be.

Get some decent pictures taken as it is though, one to tell the grand children!

My mate has a Golf MK4 and coilovers and even mud / stones / dust / atoms in the middle of the road hits the sumpguard.

Another mate has a polo and it got beached on a manhole cover :confused:
