its air ride, it can lift up 5 inches. this is the best set up for irish roads, you can still have you comfort for driving and
insanely low stance for shows or cruising.

i've had coilovers in previous cars. i used to get the car lowered to the groung for shows then get it adjusted afterwards!
cost a fortune getting adjusted the whole time. this can be changed with the touch of a button.

lowering and raising coilovers is free.

Mint car and well wear i look forward to seeing it in the metal,i am not really into the idea of buying pre modded cars myself i don't see the point in it,plus i think 300 ponies in a sohw car on air ride is a waste,i've never driven a car with air suspension but i imagine its not exactly on a par with a decent coil over set up fro road holding and drive-ability,or am i wrong?

Wouldnt usually buy a pre modded car as I feel its cheating but I'm in the middle of building a house and could never afford to build this myself. 20k euro already spent. On top of all that there is not anyone in Ireland able to to this kind of work to a car with putting a balaclava, robbin you, bending you over a table and having a good laugh at ya.

I plan a colour Change when I get couple or quid together. As for 300bhp- what's wrong with that? It will be up to 380-400 soon with a garett turbo I'm lookin at. Air ride is great it wouldnt be in mercedes s class or range rover otherwise. This car will be used not jus a trailer queen.

your old beemer, is that the one that had louis vuitton leather in it at MM in Dublin in April?

Great looking car you have bought there, saw it been unveiled at Ultimate dubs in March and the car draws serious crowds around it

there is if you look hard enough and know the right people, its your kind of comments that give ireland a bad name in the "modding scene"
