My Ride: Mini Cooper
if you remember our last chat on HSBC
my last buy was 58 and sold at 91(and selling the rights issue shares).
and also all the spare houses are sold, before the market got a bit shaky.
now Will just bought up the thing,
i have a question how do the spring cushions work???? thats bizarre, i mean springs are supposed
to like spring right, and the cushions stop it ?
i think they must be illegal, not as in add on non factory mods, but because they are not like new shocks and springs with TUV approval but they must defy physics??

also the shock will have less work and last abit longer
the down side is the ride will be about 3% bumpy but not as much as lowering the car

The reason why your windscreen not repellent water is because of the oil that stick inside the glass.
So you will need to remove all these oil before you applying the sealant, otherwise it will be just waste your time and wont last long.
Maybe i hand polish for you tonite and see if you like the result.

springs are not known to fail, only the shocks.
i would question the affect on the stability control, as it is artificial and the lean on the shocks
is reduced, better stick to the proven coilovers and shocks and springs mate!
i know you are the professed White mouse king here but i wonder if it really works.
i heard from KV that your ride is really stiff with the 3 wonder bars, tower bar? cushions etc,.
anyhow who has the best handling set up for fast road and or TMS?
that is more interesting, would it be
PSS of Derrick
Koni FSD ET/Keith
Mark Bilstein+H&R
Derek H&R coilover
Captain wonder bars+spring cushions
