Hello!

Recently bought myself a 2006 197 in Black, awesome car. I always thought my BMW 328 Coupe handled well until I drove the 197... What a change! :tearsofjoy:

Poor pictures but they were quick snaps while it's filthy and dirty.

I'm not 100% sure what's been done to it but the rear is extremely stiff, might have something to do with these springs...

(Answers on a postcard as to the make of these! A FB group thinks either AP or H&R but I have no idea)
The car looks slightly lower, maybe a 20/30mm drop? 20mm spacers and a fresh set of boots and all is good! I don't understand why people buy a hot hatch and put a set of Linglong Ditchfinder 5000's on it...

Anyway, hope to stick around, I'm enjoying my split from a RWD Panzerwagen, let's see how long it lasts before I go back?:tearsofjoy:
 
Welcome along. We're a friendly bunch on here. Lots of good info & plenty of banter. Hope you enjoy the car, I'm sure you will. I think any petrol head who doesn't enjoy these is probably already dead! I don't recognise the car, but you never know someone on here might.
