Hi
Thinking of changing my se suspension to the m sport suspension.
Has anyone upgraded their suspension and happen to. Have their old m sport stuff lying about?
I'm based in the north west.
Cheers in advance

Based on the condition of my old M sport shocks (80k), I personally would not be putting used suspension on my car.

Really? Do they not last too much?
The standard se set up ride has been ok, smooth and not rattly at all, but like the way the m sport sits, I'm thinking of coilover, but not sure I want to spend so much on the car.
What have you got now?

Yep, they were completely shot. The damper rod did not retract when pushed in on the fronts. The rear were a tiny bit better.

I replaced with OEM Sachs M sport shocks, like for like. Massive improvement.

A replacement set of shocks is around £250. Eibach springs are £120. Plus around another £50 for replacement mounts/bushes.

Thanks,
Is that the price each side or all 4 corners?
I've read somewhere that the m sport suspension on the lci was much more improved than the pre lci.
