I bought some H&R's off Sal.

The service was first class, they arrived much sooner than expected.

Fitment was no problem, just struggled without a balljoint splitter!

Really looking forward to getting it on the track to give the car a good thrashing. I've had the 'Cup kit' on an e30 before and it is easily the best kit available.

Lowers it a nice ammount too,

The H&R's are a bit firmer than knackered M-techs, but still very cumfy. I had them on one of my previous cars (GUG) and was very happy with them.

After having crap suspension on a golf before, I would only ever buy decent stuff.
