I have conflicting reports about PI Springs.  Some love em and some hate
em. Phillip Ross in Edinburg had a bad experience with them, other I have
spoken to with other cars swear by them (Care to comment Phillip?).  What
do you think?  I need to replace my front nearside spring eventually so I
will be looking at a pair.  I can get OEM (Boge) springs for GBP50 each
(anybody know a better deal?), wich don't lower the car.  I think the car
is low enough considering the amount of Speed humps in Nottingham, and I
don't want to have to replace the shocks as well because they are in good
nick.
