good news then though i did ring the garage who has been servicing the car for the last 11yrs and they have no records of its shocks or springs being changed so i recon this is a good enough reason to get them swapped for coilovers?

you could have a broken coil spring, might be worth getting it looked at

they will be fine as long as you dont slam it with a car full of ppl and if you order them from dpm performance through uk-mkivs they are £150 delivered for exactly the same coils  :wink:
