I've just bought the car pictured below, and whilst i dont intend to mod it much, i would be tempted to lower it as it sits quite high. I had coilovers in my last 147 and i know thats probably the ultimate solution, but funds wont stretch that far.

Can anyone advise which springs would work well with this car - probably looking for a 30/35mm drop?

Yeah, coilovers are a bit steep so hydraulics are the obvious solution. rolleyes

Plenty of food for thought on here. http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pages/products/se...

The standard answer for upgrading the 156 is "Eibach Pro-kit springs and Koni FSD dampers", although that might not be enough of a drop if your car has sportpack suspension already. The Koni STR kit will probably go a bit lower.
