The MK1 has it's share of the coils....

So everyone, been a bit since I have got the MK1 up on here updated with pics of it on the coils, in all fairness, it's been sitting on them since before edition, but just been trying hard to get it on here! so here goes....

the bank holiday monday came before edition, Jambo and myself were bored and decided enough was enough, it's time to get the MK1 down to where it should be....

So....

Off with the old springs and struts....

Nose down dubs....

New coilover units on....

Setting the ride stiffness, cos we all know the woman like it stiff.... ; )

Finally set....

The end product, one lowered, but dirty MK1, weather had been bad, so wasn't able to detail....

Jambo and the finished MK1....

So now the coils were on, drove it for a week, plus a distance up to Northampton for Edition38 and back, the ride height finally settled, and was craving for that rear end to be dropped down a touch. once this was completed, it was time to get all the camber and Geometries set, the guys down at wheels in motion set her to a "fast road" setup, and it truly handles like its on rails, as the coils are combined with a full polybushed chasis and front end along with a bottom brace....

all that was needed now, was a detail and some clean photos to be taken, so here it is, MK1 clean and low....

Thanks for looking....
