Skittish Handling

Quick update. New rear shocls and springs fitted just before our journey to Scotland. It's completely transformed the handling of the car. No skipping off line through corners, no more sideways shimmy over cats eyes, so much more relaxing to drive!
We would like to get the fronts sorted out soon, but as it stands the car handles so much better.
Superb! How's the rear looking height wise without passengers? My black one without OSS has kyb standard springs all round, looks a bit low at the back and high at the front. The silver looks better as it's rear is higher and front lower but no idea what parts it has fitted. The A2 does go down a lot at the rear with kids in the back, might try oss rear springs on the black one

Interested to know why you wouldn’t just replace the springs with new OE / the spec that should be on there?
