Do all S editions have lowered suspension?

HI there

Just wondering if any one knows if all S editions (imports too) have lowered suspension so that there is only 60mm ground clearance? 

I’m thinking of getting one but live in London with loads of speedbumps - anyone have problems with these? 

Also, would this make it a harder/firmer ride? 

Thanks for any help!

 Hi Sarah…the UK 1.8iS does not have lowered suspension…so that knocks one of your list!

 I have a 1999 1.8 S which  is not lower than the standard model but I think some owners may lower them to look a little better.  Had no problems with speed bumps as long as you are going  slowly  enough. The S does have ABS, three spoke nardi wheel, torsen diff and sports suspension but i do not find it any stiffer than my mark 1

Hi there

Thanks for the info, I guess even if it was lowered it would be ok over the bumps, so no worries!

Thanks again
