   I love how their advert says "They are designed the way that performance springs should be with the correct spring rate and ride height for each specific application." And yet their specific application in this case is the entire saxo range?
   
   Im currently looking to raise mine with some 40mm springs but i wouldnt touch that kit, just my opinion though. Try GMC, motorsportworld or 2modified or something!

   You mean a full kit with schock absorbers? The torsion bar is already on the car so you don't need a new one.

   Spax are doing a full kit for £150 lowers by 40mm seems a decent kit.

    We advised heavily towards AVO.
    
    During the years and years we have been in busy, we have never had an Avo product returned due to quality issues. They are fantastic for the money and we strongly suggest going with this option.
    
    There prices are also vrey good compared to the compeition and its worth paying that bit more than the entry level Gmax, Spax etc.
    
    I would be more than happy to price up some options
