My old Avo shocks leaked after not too long a time as well. And then my Leda coilovers needed rebuilding after a year or so as well. Both on the 205. Bloody aftermarket stuff :roll:





...or may be it's my driving :oops:

thanks for all the comments, i was thinking about getting it wide tracked but means spending even more money :roll: , it still on the std suspension at the moment but i must say it handles very very well with the willy wheels and std suspension alot better then my last anyway. makes me think it was a watse of money buying coilovers when the std setup is so good, or it might have been them large heavy wheels :?:

It'll be the big heavy wheels, the willy wheels prob weight near enough half what the lenzos do... the quality of the tyres will also have an impact

Coming along well... good luck with it!
