| Re: lowering springs Eibachs (I think it is a further 15mm drop over vRS) I love the handling (although for the full benefit I should upgrade to Koni FSD shocks and upgraded anti-roll bars - but they aren't Skoda parts so I couldn't add to my leased/financed car). Sleeping Policemen/Humps put paid to any notion of ride comfort though (at anything above 20 mph the jarring bump opens the front dash-top cubby and retracts the boot cover!)

| Re: lowering springs check with your insurance company before having them fitted as mine wouldn't entertain it!
