Hi there,
could someone please advise how much ground clearence there is at the front of the S2?
Are you ok over speed bumps or does it tend to scrape?
cheers

I have only once in 5 months and 4000 miles and many speed bumps had an issue. It was in a multi-story car park when I braked as I met the ramp no damage and it was only because I was on the brakes. The front splitter was designed as a cheap plastic bit which can be replaced fairly cheaply.
The only time I have heard of a front splitter being lost was in a gravel trap.
Ground clearance is 130mm F&R.
I always take speed humps on either one or the other side of the car, never by straddling the ‘hump’ IYSWIM.
Straddling a hump/cushion (hate that term), could upset the geometry if done repeatedly.

Ive always braked then backed off a second before hitting any bump in the road when at speed, never had much problems with speed bumps but ramps can be interesting. Ive notived a few splitters start to crack close to the number plate, on mine ive filled it with expanding foam to give it a little more rigidity, but ultimately it will still have to be replaced.

how cheap is cheap mate?
Cheap, Lotus! That’s a good one!
Cheaper than a fancy carbon fibre one
