   Remember that coilovers will only adjust the height at the front of the car and not the back, if you're going to be adjusting them frequently then you'll either need to keep adjusting the torsion bar or get the torsion bar replaced with coilovers which I've heard costs a lot to do.

   without checking my receipts about £3500 for the front and rear coilover conversion. It'd certainly be the best handling Saxo around
