I'm sure that fits the "dumped off its tits" category.

I'd be taking the body's outta the boot if your taking passengers.

Are there even any springs in it?

Thats a bit silly, won't handle too well....Should of gotten new struts/shocks, new springs and a wheel alignment... Looks like you might have some wheel rubing issues too sorry to say mate.

yes I agree 100% that if your going to lower your car do it right the first tim as it saves you money time and most of all from having a serious accident.
