Thumbs up KW Sports Dampers and Springs (Octavia Mk1 PD130)

Went from standard suspension to KW Sports Dampers and Springs about 2 weeks ago.

Initial Impressions
* Looks sooo much better but not overly obvious
* It feels along way down when getting in and out of the car
* 1st drive, much firmer but not overly harsh

1000 miles later
* front has lowered slightly more and now the car looks to sit more level
* drive feels much the same as 1st drive although slightly softer damping
* comfort - although the ride is much firmer it isn't that harsh when driving down badly maintained roads.

Bottom of the front bumper is now about 3inches from the road and I haven't caught any speed humps yet.

I wanted the coilovers but glad I went for these instead.
