    can anyone help???
    I recently stumbled upon a mk1 citi golf imported from south africa and it's a bloody fantastic buy.
    It is indesperate need of a good mechanic to lower the suspension. I'm wanting to take about 80mm out, can anyone suggest a quality grease monkey in the Dewsbury/Leeds/west yorkshire area?????

    Do it yourself mate.

    Not a difficult job at all.

    Everyone has to start somewhere. No one is a born mechanic, and with the right tools suspension is a fairly straight forward job (IMO). You'll save a lot of money if you do work yourself on the car, and it can give a lot of satisfaction to. [:D] :thumbup:

    As for which bits to use, I'm not much help there I'm afraid. [:s]
