But I think yours is spot on

Mine sat like this on 15" alloys with the nose down a bit, handled good, a local tight corner I could take it at double speed once I lowerd it....
If you like your car how it is leave it, it's your car, that's what counts

Hmm...agree that its sat low, but, if you were to straighten your front wheels i can guarantee (looking and going by this pic) that the gap between tyre and arch is MUCH greater than that of the rear, which...if what i've been reading off some of the ''professionals'' on here - is not nose down?
Pretty much, if not more so, in the same boat as me yet mine gets a hammering and yours gets praised....
Very nice car though mate

there was nose down, the way i can tell that is because a jack fitted under rear sill not at the front
