i was in the petrol station, i screamed after him but I got caught at the round about, then the lights and then he was gone!  :sad:
car will be fixed by saturday, here's a few pics of the mess!!





Could have been worse, if i didn't mount the curb i would have had no car!
Police have been a load of crap, there is cctv of it and they still have done FA.

Go back to the police and ask them to take it further etc, or speak to someone higher up.

Sorry to hear about your accident mate  :sad:

I've been using Eibach pro kit springs with standard shocks for about a month now & the ride quality is very good, no rubbing or problems with speedbumps etc.

I know richw911 is a big fan of these as well.

I have a 150 diesel that I am about to put diesel Anni set up onto. 1 rear spring needs replaced and even with discount at VW , its gonna be near £70 for the 1 spring.

Should I just get a set of the Pro springs and use these instead. Would the -30 mm make the ride too harsh??

Help appreciated here

Thanks

I'm running the same wheels & haven't noticed any difference in the comfort of the ride.
The car takes corners better as well.
 
Apparently they are the same springs used on the 25th anniversary gti's, not 100% sure on that though.
