are there perhaps already pics or information about lowering a DS a couple-of-cm ?
anybody?

 

[J77]

Forgive me, but why would you buy a Land Rover then lower it?

 

[Charles]

Why lower it, just buy something else

 

[Moose]

I am at a loss with this as well, I know many who have raised there Landys for extra ground clearance, but lower it :?

 

[Duncanslater]

Many people lower Defenders so why not a DS?

 

[Charles]

Why bother, it's like lifting a Ferrari.

Should have bought a macan.

i drove for 2.5 years an evoque coupe
i did lowered it with 3 cm H&R springs
and put spacers on each wheel (wide +2 cm)

It LOOKED much better and it handled much better
thats why
(because i don't drive off road)

It's up to the owner but Land Rovers are made to go off road, hence the ground clearance. I would not want it to be any less.

:lol:

Hey thats my saying, but i think we should all use it, when its apropraite,

Re: Lowering a DS; Yes it can be done, why not. Just use an angle grinder to lopp off a few coils, and while your widening the track i'd reccomend sticking some arches on it, Off an Old Manta GTE or similar,

Thata bound to LOOK much better and its bound to handle better, after all , thats why we buy these cars, because they go round corners like a roller skate, hugging the ground like an F1 car, sparks flying as the belly plate skims the tarmac in the Drive Thru !

P.S. None of this will affect your warranty, :roll:

I can send a link for a large clip on boot spoiler if needed, they also make the car quicker.

 

[philn]

Go faster stripes!!!.

 

[Tollerted]

Furry dice surely...

 

[ozsport]

And don't forget some nice rattle pack flame paintwork

 

[Chalky]

What about some subtle mood lighting, UNDERNEATH the car, NEON Stylie !

 

[philn]

No good Chalky, won't see it if car lowered and you know how "bright" the mood lighting is inside the car!.

 

[IluH]

Don't you remember the lowered Freelander 2.5 V6 Sport?

 

[NAB]

You all speak of the DS as an off road car, and yes it is but how many of you guys will ever change your off road settings from road use ?
You slag chalky for the bold idea of lowering a DS but it would probably look better and who needs 600mm wading depth ? 550mm might just be adequate ! How many range rovers with the best of 4x4 out there with 22" alloys that would be damaged going up a 4" footpath ? They still look the part though.

It may look better lowered - but it is not as much fun - ( I know its not my car but I was driving it)
