Sportline suspension a little too high?






According to Vin # WDB1240231B653957 my car comes with SA Code 653 Sport Chassis, 8 hole wheels, this means Sportline suspension but the car doesn't look low at all specially in the back, prior owner says she hasn't done anything to the suspension as a matter of fact she says she never replace the shocks cause the car only has 68.000 kms.
If somebody could offer some explanation.....

It does look a little high at the rear but the front looks about right


Here's a picture of my sport line that is European spec with self levelling rear.
