Ah, is my van already slightly lowered?

Post by VWNZ »

I've had it for a while now, and for some reason I've started to look at it and think it is lowered.

It's a 1989 Caravelle, with big bumpers. I think I've read somewhere that that model had slightly modified shocks?

Here's a photo from today. I went around the London tourist sights (and some not so touristy) while everyone had left!

Caravelle was usually lowered from the factory by 30mm, lower springs fitted.
Keep it real.

Were you pricing up the old Lambo V12 conversion?
