Re: Front suspension
Cliff, What is the part number that they are quoting for their Coupe springs? And also very important is which make springs are they? Norman Motors are advertising the correct spec spring kit part number for your convertible (JLM10920) at £70. I don't know what make it is. Martin Robey advertise it...

Re: Front suspension
Cliff, That seems to be definitely too low at the front. You need to look up the exact dimensions in your Service Manual. However, I know that the rear unladen height is about 190mm +/- 6mm.

Re: Front suspension
Hi guys The photos do seem to exaggerate the rear for some reason!I can just about get one finger between the top of tyre and wheel arch, the rear as far as I know is the original set up, it doesn't seem to have been replaced with anything other than OE, the front shocks have been replaced with AYB ...

Re: Front suspension
Hi thanks for your replies,I've had the springs packed out to the maximum already, I'd be surprised if I had 2 broken springs, to look at side on she does seem to slope forward, I can get two fingers between top of tyre and wheel arch, also because she is a convertible it has the crossbrace under th...

Re: New battery

My advice would be for you to phone or email Lincon batteries of Leigh on Sea, Essex, as they still make them for your car. Their phone number is 01702 528 711 and their email is http://www.lincon.co.uk. The las...
