What lowering springs?

For that sort of a drop people tend to go for Eibach pro's (20-30mm) or sportlines (30-50mm) and depending on where you get them (eBay generally has the best deals) they can be anywhere from £130-180.
I have H&R's on mine which give an even 40mm drop all round compared to the nose down look of the Eibachs. H&R's can be had for £130 off eBay from Germany.
Comfort will be massively improved over the standard spring no matter which you choose.

Thanks for the replies
H&R's and Eibach's are definitely the best out there and I've only heard good things but they're a little dear for me. Any thoughts or experiences on AP or Apex or should I save up for? Was looking at DPM Performance for ones

DPM is expensive compared to eBay. As I mentioned they can both be had for £130 off there. That's where I got mine from.
How much are the AP & Apex ones?

Thanks, yeah she's pretty lively. Hopefully after I get the map tweaked she'll be even better lol
No will be fine as long as you dont go crazy low.
I'd say the EIbach Pro springs would be the best option for you going off what you've said - https://www.dpmperformance.co.uk/ca...i-cupra-20t-fsi-fr-20t-si-20tdi-fr-20tdi-0805

I have a 2007 TDI 140 with 18" BBS Seat alloys. What sort of drop would the H&R give and how have you found it. I do think the car is too high but worried about going to low, comfort and speed humps and the like

Yes we're more expensive then buying direct from one of the German companies on eBay but if anything goes wrong it's much easier to deal with it if you've purchased from a UK supplier.

H&R give a 40mm drop. Will be fine against speed bumps and will improve the comfort over standard.
Personally I love mine now it's on the H&R's, more comfortable and handles a hell of a lot better.

Another vote for H&R springs, completely transformed the car in terms of looks and ride quality.
The drop does throw off the camber as had lowered cars before and you couldn't keep tyres on them, wearing the inside edge
