            I got in touch with Balance Motorsport, a suspension specialist.
            Essentially it is like Andy said. The springs you use need to be carefully matched up to the damper. Mine were too stiff and indeed the dampers were shot inside where they kept slamming onto the bump stops.
            The car now leans a little on a corner whereas before it did not. Therefore, not only has ride comfort improved but so has the handling as now the tyres are being allowed to do their job

                      Are they off a Ur quatttro? Do they need any extra bits welding on to fit coil overs or are they ready to go. Thanks
