I think the full 205 is out of my price range to be honest. Not sure what I'm doing next, just want a bit more low end torque then I'd be happy grin Yeah will definitely get some pics up soon! Does anyone know roughly how much a garage would charge for fitting the springs? Unless there's anyone in the Lincoln area that could do it for a few quids?

Can't wait! yours looks just the right height, going to make a few phone calls see if I can get someone to fit them with me. Wouldn't want to do it myself but garage cost loads and you can't learn as you go at a garage.

welcome to the site mate happy

nice choice of winter wheels, i have a set of those as track wheels! in yellow lol

the only thing with pumaspeed to dont believe the figures they tell you on the kits, they are well over stated, the 182 kit you'll be lucky to get 170bhp with it

Welcome to the site. If you do find the Eibach springs. Let me know where you've found them and i'll try secure a discount for you before you purchase.

Cheers,

Already got them mate! Got them from Pumaspeed, think i made a bit of a mistake though to be honest, ended up costing £190 with postage and paypal. I got bored on the night shift and did a bit of an impulse buy.. Got quoted £80 for fitting though which isn't too bad.

You paid about £15-20 too much... no big deal. £80 is about right for fitting. Check your shocks whilst your at it, two stones with one throw...

hmm think so Rob. Springs do make a huge difference, doesnt feel like your in a 4x4 towering over other cars. thumbs
