I wouldn't say they break easily, more that it is one of the more common things to go wrong.

hey mate welcome! hope you find a decent example that your happy with!

Wanted to add that if you take a test drive in one with rough idleing it can be fixed fairly easily and cheaply, although this may be a good sign of neglect

TBH mate, I dont think it's that big a deal. If I was buying a car though, I would want to know exactly what was on it, thats the only reason that I said it looked lower than he said it was. For comparison, here's mine on 45mm spax

His seems lower to me which can be done with coilovers and isn't a problem
