Low MINI

Hi Folks.

Just found this little beauty on an American Car site. Not sure what i think of it to be honest, think its probably thumbs up though. What do you think? Is the owner on here? If so, please stand up!

Not sure about the white ring tyres but its certainly low. Would look good with some nice alloys...

Do you know what set-up he is using? Everycar looks lower than it actually is on grass, take that into consideration.

The person who ownes it has got alloys but they don't really suit the look of the car. This one is growing on me the more i look at it. There are some more pics, i'll dig them out and try to find the Tech-spec too!

These are the alloys that don't really suit the car in my opinion. The tech-spec is not really listed, but they are using 'Intrax Coilovers', modified i think too?

Has anyone ever airbagged a MINI? Obviously, KW will not be able to go over speedbumps, so I'm guessing that is airbagged?

KW's aren't airbags, they're just coilovers that Rik (RedUn) has stupidly but awesomely low
