No.... it is the 'Invincible' without the unreliable air suspension Smile

Believe me.... the adjustable suspension is not at all reliable once it becomes a year or two old. I have heard of people taking it off Confused Sad

The LC is up to just about anything you can throw it at but sadly the adjustable suspension can let the car down. Whatever the parts are, valves possibly, that allow the suspension to raise and lower these are prone to failure and often have to be changed under warranty. I have read a couple of cases when owners have got past the warranty period and taken the system off the car.

This won't bother you unless you decide to keep it for 3+ years. I have to ask however why you would want such a system? I also would not wish to pay for a DVD set up in a car unless I got some form of benefit from it Confused I did look at the car in my local showroom but still went for the less complicated Invincible and saved myself a few thousand pounds.

Each to their own of course where a choice of car is concerned. Enjoy what you have and I hope all goes well.
