Here's a few pointers:

It's too low
The wheels are too big
The tyres are too thin

So what are the bad points then?

Have you ever driven a standard one?

Actually, when you grow up, you'll probably understand.

That's even more reason to have a standard one.

She likes as is.

I'll give it a few weeks for the novelty to wear off. Or for her to rip
the exhaust off on a speed bump. After you've done that a few times and
have vibration whitefinger from all the road imperfections you soon get
bored of stupidly low suspension and big wheels.

Wife advises Steve that she might like that kinda vibration and as for
ripping exhausts off thats what hubbies are there for (to fix) and yes we
have some rather large speed bumps in our street(although it doesnt catch on
any of em if you keep it slow)

and anyway it keeps her happy which means i get peace and quiet to fanny
about with the van

No, having driven a 2 litre nova, there is very little more fun
