tbh I really do not know... with the different suspension options and wheels ect avaliable to them it gets kind of hard to distinguish. It's just a mate said and showed a pic of another 110 CSW and there definetly seemed to be a little more air under the arch.

Plus the fact it has Baby Blue Springs and Orange Shocks :?

I thought my 90 was standard, then I had to put new shockers on the back and snapped 3 brand new ones before we established it had a 2" lift.  Got the longer shockers on and they have been fine.  Park it next to another 90 on 235/85s and it looks identical, but the springs were probably fitte din 1996, when it was rebuilt so they are 10 years old now.

It's not a real car unless it's over 30 years old!
Classic cars are the ones who's owners wave to each other. I just bought a pretend car! F plate 90!

Def not lifted, I'd even go so far as to say, if you fitted a new pair of rear springs it would sit a little higher.
If I wanted a clever answer, I'd have asked a clever person!

I would agree, its not lifted. But looks like it needs new springs.
