Is it just me, or does the suspension look like it's sitting a little too high?

Lol typical

It was a genuine curiosity question.

It does, by about 20mm all round.

I might be mistaken, but I think that's just the angle of the picture / wheel combos etc.

A side-on picture and they look smack-bang in the middle of the arches all around... so looks right to me & the car certainly doesn't feel like it's on stilts.

The ad mentioned it has the sports chassis option... although having had a look at the build sheet and the options codes in the service book, I think that might have been a typo as it looks to be "normal" height rather than lowered 20mm like the sports chassis option would do.

Although... it has a couple of options that aren't on the build sheet or in the service booklet... like the steering wheel & cruise control.

I'm not too bothered... very happy with the girl, she drives beautiful and a bit stiff on the 19s (I wouldn't have specced the 19s myself, bigger sidewall = more progressive grip characteristics and a comfier ride... but the other options and condition are good so I'm not complaining )... but and extra 2cm off and firmer setup... I can see the ride being quite stiff.

Lovely crinkleshoes

Very nice.

Nice Boxster S

Thanks

I didn't post this one because of the rubbish backdrop... but here they look closer to the top of the arches than the sides:

Glad they fitted a steering wheel - just in case

Boxster isn't a beetle, its mid engine.

My wife still has one of the very first TomTom's from way back from before the car was invented and we are off to south of France so wanted a new one. Just doing all the updates and stuff, which frankly seems to be taking a bloody age. Went with the 5" over the 6" as felt the portability outweighed the screen size.

Hehe... know what he means though... there is a certain... mild... similarity.

New shoes for work and an overpriced draining board.

It was a genuine curiosity question.

a quick look on pistonheads and it seems the norm.

I know what your saying though, would look better and more planted if lowered a bit. Nevertheless, nice car.

Got myself a new printer. My old Lexmark was over 10 years old and had picked up a few battle wounds.

Nice printers them

Picked up a Steel Grey Limited edition Batman PS4 this week. Wanted to get the game so sold my old black model and added £50 to get this.

That looks awesome. I'm thinking of doing the same and getting the new Destiny console.

Had to get my name in print..
