| Hello my dear The fitting on the springs is £167.50 + VAT and that includes the geo set up afterwards too (£196.81 all in) For the springs I am going to quote for Eibach as these are excellent springs and they are £127.99 + VAT (£150.39 all in) They are for a 30mm drop front and rear too I hope that helps?

| Mmmm The best I have found so far is the 40mm ones from Koni Quite a bit cheaper too I have the 1.9TDi 100PD on a 51 plate and I have the STR.T kit on mine and it lowered it to a fantastic level ![]() There is a pic if that helps? I always said it was like a Fabia , but on stilts until I had it lowered Sarah |

| Hi Mine was lowered on the Koni STR.T kit , so it is the same I must admit , I do think that Eibach are the ones that I would use if I was lowering with just springs With all suspension it will be a tad harsher with the springs alone , no matter which ones you go for Sorry , I cannot say gor for A or B as they are better , I think it is a much of a muchness and Koni offer more lowering I had a drive in a new Fabia Sport yesterday and thought it could do with a large amount of lowering and it did wallow a bit So maybe lowering would help a bit Sarah |
