Brett is the man to speak to, he really knows his stuff. I took my car in to have the brake fluid done and asked him to have a look at the front suspension while he was there. He carried out a full alignment check and only charged me for the brake fluid change. Great garage.
I thought it might be, when I first had my zed I took it there to look at an airbag problem and spoke to Pete. They get great feedback, if I didn't do most of the work myself I'd take mine there.

If it has adjustable damping it MIGHT be worth a punt at that price.

On my BC’s I use the damping a lot ie softer front in winter takes away underteer.
It will also let you control the rake of the car which I found noticeable. If it has camber adjustable front mounts then a bit on the front is nicely noticeable too.

As I understand you live a great neck of the woods where you probably have much opportunity to test the handling and settings then down here with our crappy roads!

I thought my BC’s at around 700 were cheap but this is only £200??!!

I don't mind the rough ride, its getting myself unfolded from a Z3 after an hours drive that's the problem..
You can end up going round in circles with the advice you get on these forums sometimes Jim. For 200 nicker you might be best of just bunging them on then see how you go, especially if a rough ride doesn't bother you. Who knows, they might be alright. If so, I'm getting a set! :rally:
