Alright bud, yeh its handy being over the road from the sarny shop :smug: Not sorted them yet, to be honest im in two minds whether or not to go back oem with lowering springs...love how stiff it is but i nearly send the missus into labour going over bumps lol.
Have you seen that red mk2 banging up and down Otley road? looks clean as a whistle.

Cheers mate, i was thinking the same about yours..love the Vento conversions.
Seen your post on club gti with the coilovers, i'm having same probs with mine banging and rattling on the nearside, thinking of going back standard.

Yeah, that red mk2 is bang tidy. There are quite a few nice VW's round here.
