Thanks Ben - had it 3 weeks and apart from putting 2 tyres on the next day I bought it, the last couple of days are first chance I have had to do a bit of work on it.
225 Trophy
Had 2 hours whilst Quinn was asleep.
So did the external door handle and interior handles and door run strip on the passenger side.

Quite a bit softer Scott. I have owned 2 x 200's with Bilstein coilovers and 2 x 200's with H and R's and cup struts. I do prefer the lowered stance of the coilovers and learnt to live with the ride but the H & R's were lovely in comparison but just not low enough, lol.
Hi Scott :) glad you got home okay yesterday and survived the long journey and the rain.
As said the H and R's on cup shocks are a very nice ride and still give a substantial amount of lowness in your life.
Here are photos of the 2 AG's i have owned. The full fat had H and R's with cup...
AG 200
Now sold and living down South.
On its way to its new home:
225 Trophy
Had a spare hour this morning in between looking after the kids.
So I thought I would tackle the exhaust:
I honestly thought it was beyond it’s best and nearly bought this as it was original with a back box chop...
225 Trophy
So a few parts bought:
Upper and lower front strut links.
Outer track rod ends.
Front discs.
Front pads.
Rear pads.
Standard stereo.
New wipers.
New mats.
H & R lowering springs.
Gear knob decal.
Spacers.
Driveshaft gaiter.
Keyless drivers door sensor.
Replacement passenger door...
Very very good point and something that spins me out!!!
As soon as I see anything laying/propped up on the drive/concrete/gravel puts me off instantly!
At least lay it on the grass or put it on rags or towels!
You’re obviously on cliotrophy forum so a quick recap of the 2 current Sachs topics shows NOBODY on the forum (that has posted up) has bought any of him because of his questionable payment procedure.
I have used Ren Breakers a lot on eBay and always been good with good communication but saying that, sending a bonnet is always going to be a gamble.
I would be more worried about the couriers reputation - so yes make sure you’re covered.
