I calculate a lower of 10 to 15 cm. It does not have blue lowering springs, but is definitely lowered. It shows up as lower in a line of Bongos, plus two unlowered Bongos, including an Aero can get down my drive with easy clearance of the steep angle whilst I scrape if the line is not right.
The road holding is excellent but I would not to go any further down, for fear of speed bumps.
Or maybe your springs are just a little tired?
What size are the tyres on your 17inch wheels?
