Does anyone have any standard rear spring for a Mk1 1.6 that they want to sell?

I know a lot of people have changed shocks/springs in recent months and i'm about to redo my rear suspension... I need some shocks/standard springs so I thought it might be good to see if I can get some second hand ones!

Cheers,
Phill

Denny - Fitted the rear shock/standard springs last night!

What a difference, in a couple of weeks we'e going to sort the lowering out then a quick trip to WIM and she'll be as good as new.

Ordered all new filters and oil (including diff and gearbox) and new turret rubber stuff so that should keep me busy this weekend.

Not really driven it in anger just yet but it's a lot better. If anything the front know feels a bit soft (which is to be expected I suppose)
