Yup... thats what it looks like... difference in drop between the front and back... the car drives nice enough, handled well, didnt jar too much over uneven road surfaces, wasnt skittish, didn't pull to any side when accelerating...etc i.e. it drove like you would expect a GTI to.... but the fronts are definitely lower than the rears... one thing i did notice however is that I didnt feel any real difference between sport, normal and comfort modes on the ACC... but that could just be down to the effect being really subtle... or the springs limiting the effect of the dampeners....
as you say though... quite strange.... the garage I bought it from where a bit clueless TBH but they did try to get the previous owner on the phone to speak to me but they only got his answer phone... they basically took the car as a part ex on an Audi RS4 Estate in february and had only really done minimum checks (i.e. paperwork, log book and history, HPI check)... but they seem pretty well established business, seem to have a good reputation...etc
Dont understand why someone would just do the fronts though... but there is nowt as queer as folk!
