try jumping up in the boot then taking it for a drive He'd need pretty long arms to do that!   Yeah a spin around the block should settle it I'd have thought. |

Was is the PARABOLIC ones mate or the lowering kit and springs?, If its the Kit and springs they take a couple of days to settle, the Parabolic ones should do it right away if they don't then the Rubber Sleeves are not the right versions. MG only just started makeing those in the standard ride height and lower verson.
I got a couple of mates to sit in the back to aid and this worked

Yer in Kits and in cars, the chrome bumper cars were lower and to fit in with american driving legals, they had to raise the height and put the bumpers on, I lowered my Xflow Roadster and found it a bit better for corners, but the guy i sold it to has now put it back to its original height
