Personally, I'd check out the shocks. Make sure they're alright before making a decision on springs or springs/dampers or coilovers....

New shocks plus an ALK might be a better combination... But as all 4 corners would have to come off anyway, do the springs too.

I would recommend AGX KYB gas adjustable shocks (one right height but adjustable stiffness) and a set of Eibachs. I had these (as well as a full set of Whiteline droplinks) fitted to the old Scoob. Difference was fantastic and the car was only approx 25-35mm lower so didn't look daft.

Spax springs & shocks are also good.
