lower w203 saloon rear

[MSG2004]

hi

my car is a 2003/53 late c180k classic/se.

I bought the car without driving, seeing it or ever being in one via the phone.

I don't like the side profile of the car as the back is too high.

A few months after buying the car as the fun wore off, I noted the Avantgarde and i theink the elegance models had a different/better suspension.

How can I inprove the looks/ride, relatively cheaply?

I'm more interested in lowering the rear without losing ride quailty.

Thanks

I think it is the Avantgarde that has the different suspension set up to the other 2.
I expect you could get a lowering spring set, you can for a lot of cars these days.
Not sure it will alter the look that much though.

Or maybe the full hog?
Not sure these are the right ones, just an example.

MB do a sports suspension pack in addition to the standard Avantgarde suspension. Mine has it fitten and is noticably lower at the back that other Avantgarde's I;ve parked next to. The rear tyres have a gap of about 1/2 inch to the wheel arches. I'm assume that MB would sell the suspension parts separateyl.
