    Will be looking to replace the shocks on the polo, so considering going the whole hog.

    Options seem to be h&r cup kit of springs and shocks,
    Vogtland springs and shocks,
    Eibach springs and normal shocks.

    I've had Eibach on the a4 and they were very good, and comfortable.
    Which is another thing, as I'm old don't want anything too harsh, had coilovers on the bmw mini for a week as my good lady couldn't stand it, and my inca had them on the front and again filling shaking.

    Any input on the h&r or Vogtland welcomed. Cheers

    Eibach and b6 or b8 dampers, winner.
    HnR Cup and Vogtland, they'd be opposite ends of the spectrum.

    Bilstein b12 kit, b8s plus eibach springs is about 50 more than h&r kit, looks to be the way, cheers Dave
