Good stuff
This is the likely route i'll take. Mines on 140k, and i've 30mm H&R Lowering springs. Love the ride and stance, hence for what i use the car for its perfect. I'll also look to replace as many bushes and rubbers etc with stock :-)

probedb:
Yeah, I asked earlier last year and was recommended:

Springs
Shocks
Top mounts
Ball joints
Front console bushes
Drop links
Front and rear ARB bushes

But also did the ARBs themselves as Whiteline had a pretty good deal on theirs which included the adjustable drop links as well. Very happy with the way the car handles now. It's the right balance of comfort and stiffness...and speed bumps are still fine!

ljc19630:
Ah that's really handy to know. Did you replace with OEM items (other than the Whiteline kit)

probedb:
Only the ball joints were stock. The top mounts are the Audi TTRS ones. Console bushes were uprated from Darkside Developments and the rest as previously mentioned :)

Don't suppose you've got the part codes to hand bud?
