Also what proton were you driving before? Can't access your link without registering.

#6: Re: seanbrown121's HDi DTurbo! Author: ARRAN, Location: WiltshirePosted: Mon Aug 19, 2013 11:25 am ---- Couldl've gone lower
i think i have the wider nimrods because the arches sit on my tyres and you can see where they have worn, !
but i got a rolling pin, jacked the car onto it and rolled my arches! haha and it worked!
#8: Re: seanbrown121's HDi DTurbo! Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Mon Aug 19, 2013 4:04 pm ---- What wider nimrods? The 206 ones are 6.5j, which got easily under the arches.

406 nimrods have a lower offset meaning they stick out further think thats what he means

Not really, looks like every single panel is practically dented or rusted.
#14: Re: seanbrown121's HDi DTurbo! Author: seanbrown121, Location: WrexhamPosted: Tue Aug 20, 2013 12:47 pm ---- My old car! Proton Satria Sport
The one on the right
Then the engine blew up so it was replaced, some pics of the blew engine
as you can possibly tell this car isnt my pride and joy, it is just a midpoint between a nicer car, i have bought it to save fuel, tax and insurance, and for 500 quid (what he advertised it at) i think its a bargain!
