    Hi mate, Its difficult to explain height without pictures, But.. The ride is not bad at all, I would have said theyre better than a **** set of coilovers. The thing with air suspension is that the more air you have in the bags the harder the ride becomes. So the best thing to do is...

  11. Air suspension

    looks like a nice example mate, Im currently on air suspension, just the basic manual lift kit aswell, couldnt recommend it more, Not sure why i didnt do it sooner, or at least go with a more expensive kit! Looks really good in silver, miles are exactly the same as mine too... recent cambelt too!

    I agree with you completely, Future proofing is fundamental if your keeping the vehicle for a long time. I would love to do it to my Leon but Im not sure how far i want to start digging in, I consider mine to be in very good condition with only 66k on the clock, but really getting stuck in to...

    Hi there, Since I last posted loads of stuff has been happening. I had the car repainted. An absolute blessing working in a body shop!! Next up was some brand new brakes, I went with genuine parts all around apart from the front discs, For those I went with EBC grooved and drilled...

  20. Another creaking suspension thread :)

    Hello there, I have had a good look at some of the threads on here in regards to front suspension creaking And i am seeing lots of useful advise but i would like the opinions of someone who has dealt with this issue first hand. My Cupra R 03 at very low speeds makes a quick creaking noise...
