hiya :)

all depends on how much money you want to spend.

coilovers start at around 500 quid and are only worth it if you are serious about your cars handling and/or want a lot of on-car adjustment.

if you just wanted to sort out the looks and improve the handling a basic spax kit or similar for around 200 quid would sort your car out nicely :)
