on which car are these self levelling shocks, are they air operated?

the reason i ask is cos my rangie has airbags and i love em, the best ride ever. although can be a bit of a pig when they go mad!

They're air assisted but not the same as the air bags you see on HGV's ( I haven't seen what's on a Range Rover  :-/)  :y. You' find them standard on the Elite saloons & estates (unless someone has replaced them with standard dampers - like mine had. Don't know what else .... higher spec estates?????  :-/  :y :y
