Interesting. It may have something to do with my car being stripped and his isn't.

there adjusters to adjust the hight, but you can take them off, the springs also sit in a little cup which you can also discard...

no but I have seen plenty of broken FK components such as front csuspension struts snapped, front springs snapped, shock absorbers leaking, badly corroded bodies and springs etc.... and TUV means nothing in the UK anyway, all I will say is that my springs are manufactured by the same people that make springs for LEDA
