Ok. If you look in the thread "What engine does your 190 have " from yesterday, Ribel put a link to a French 190 Forum. If you click on that link you will see his signature picture, and the white dress !

Mike.

Ooh,la,la !

T.Y. !!! :)

...she's full hydropneumatic suspension, with the 3 positions like Evo models (I don't know in England but it was an option on 2.3-16 and 2.5-16 here and in Deutchland, and originally made on Evo I and II)

as she's "in parking" on the pic, she's automatiquely on the (...very...) lowest position, but I never drive like this it's impossible

certainly she's got short springs cause she's been upgraded by the ex-owner I'm not sure but have a look :

...it can't pass lol...

Someone who have the same suspension system can compare?

oh! ok thanks! (logic... :wacko: )

...no, at each wheel, the rear was OK but at the front, the interior of wheels touched the "shok absorber"
... I'm now at work (lol) but I'll look the ET for 2pm :)

Aha! ET45 + 8j will no doubt be a little too close to the shock absorber..

Nice solution with the spacers..
