Can anyone confirm the free length of the front and rear springs on a V6 S Series? T.I.A.

Have a look at THIS THREAD and the post on 23 March 2014. It's not exactly what you're looking for but it might help a bit.

Correction:- 12th March 2014

Although these are V8S springs I think they are probably the same as the V6 ones as the vehicle weights are about the same.

If I ever knew what the V6 spring rates are I've forgotten it, but I wouldn't assume they are identical to the V8S. (The V8S has different handling requirements and other slight differences such as a different ARB.)

On the bright side, the majority will probably have had the springs and dampers replaced at least once by now and a car park survey would probably find no two the same.
