Hey ladies, got this not long ago for cheaps. Tidy, 95,000km, 1,000cc, 80-something Charade.

Got it a wof yesterday so lowered a bit and sorted wheels and tyres today.





3 is the perfect number, everyone else has got it all wrong. Sounds like a Porsche 917, kinda

Future plans are more low...

I learned to drive in a Charade...love them.

Good work...and it looks so sweet...i just want to cuddle it!

[mikuni]

I approve. How does it sit when its not full of wheels?

What size tyres are those. They're hot, I want to rub them.

[Zeb]

Hay Bradley, it sits like no more than 5mm higher, rim even with guard. So basically it's still got a way to go down yet. That's 3 coils out the front, 2 out the back and it's very uncaptive, already had a spring slip out on the way home...

155/55-14 Federal something, anything bigger on this would fail

[Simon]

I don't even.

You're going to make me do bad things to my Alto.

the light on the rear quater makes me think you should re-spray in purple satin...

[Simon]

Fixed

[fuel]

took me a while to see what you did there!

[Simon]

Good thing about cars like this is the wheels are so close to the front and back the approach angle to driveways is still sweet when they are below bumps.

[mutiny]

it pretty much is matt

[Kingpin]

so cool. ive always like the looks of these cars....are they super cheap to run?

[Zeb]

^Like you wouldn't believe

Couldn't really justify owning a bigger daily now, will probably save me 2k a year in gas if you wanna look at it that way

[Ke36]

haha never seen this before now

pretty much what i will do to mine, what width are you wheels? guna try get 7s in there
we should go on a cruise and get biches

3 cyl <3

[Zeb]

They're 14x6 +20-30ish. Gonna put spacers in rear and deal to guards. Also lower this weekend


Pair of slammed Charades would blow some minds that's for sure.

[Fliboi]

if your keen on some 10mm slip ons then i have a pair i decided im not going to use

[Zeb]

Want like at least 25mm, although 10mm could be good for up front. I'll let you know if I need, cheers dude
