   just fit it and get the saxo slammed.
   
   Back to reality - IMO there are better kits out there for the price, but to pay that for coilovers isnt too bad - might not last very long tbh.
   
   I'd save up another hundred or so and get a good quality suspensions kit - have a search on here for recommendations.

   if you feel you really need coilovers, get the gaz ones. avoid the cheap shite tuningleader ones

   the only reason i want coilovers is i had an xr2i lowered 60mm on just springs with orignal dampers and the ride was terrible to say the least got alot of
   spring jump and it handled like crap it had 15s on it.
   
   all i want now i got my saxo is a spring that fits the shocks so i dont get any spring jump every time i hit a bump or speed hump and so it handles a bit better
   
   i wanna drop around 40mm all round and ive got 16inch lenso RS5 on order at the mo so are coilovers and upgraded rear dampers the way forward for me

   If you wanted to go 40mm i personally would bother with ciolovers i would just get a full lowering kit that comes with matched springs and dampers.
   
   take a look on kam they do a selection http://www.kamracing.co.uk/citroen-s...er-springs-44/
