    Don't really agree with thee boge route myself. My mk4 is lowered on FK coilovers, they are cheap as chips now really, any you can set the height as you want.

    I run my my van pretty low, but can still fill it full of DJ equipment at the weekend with no scrubbing.

    In fact I might drop it another quater inch at the back thinking about it.

    Plus it handles miles better now.
