My springs are red  :-/  ;)
Lucky bugger.  Got Irmscher at the front of the MV6, and that has sorted that long standing high speed understeer I've always complained of.

If anyone knows of a complete set of Irmscher springs going, I could be interested...

Irmscher Andy?

It appears they could be  :-/ ..... you learn something new every day  ;)  ;)  I've had the car nearly 7 years, looked at the red springs at various times & never though anything about it.  :y

Secret? What secret? ;D

 As said the left one is impressive. And how the top coils have compressed compared to the new one.

Genuine springs?

That would explain the suspect handling on the worlds worse kept secret.


Thanks tunnie, for use of your drive, and for your gadget hands to get your hands in the depths of the drivers door...


Yet another reason why FSH is not necessarily a good thing.  I suspect the fuel filter is several years old, and the last muppet to do the oil is a prat  >:(.  Still, nothing that a bit of TLC won't cure :y


Why were you trying to keep it a secret?

Because until its niggles have been sorted, of which there are quite a few, I have decided to keep it fairly low key
