New car!

Well almost  Grin
 
I have now replaced all four shockers (with Monroe Original) plus front springs (Kilen) and front anti roll bars, in addition to previously replacing the front bushes. Feels just like a brand new car. Can't wait til I get the rear springs replaced, as they are 4-5cm too low.
 
Had it for a test drive now, flew over some really bad gravel roads filled with pot holes without the car even shaking  Grin
 
Btw, the original front shockers were probably some of the worst I've seen in my life. It took only a light push with one arm to fully depress them, and there they stayed for about half an hour. (No, sorry, I'm not kidding, but I wish I were)

Around bends it does, as it doesn't try to roll over and die anymore  Grin
