Cars going good thanks bud, recently bought her some KYB AGX damper adjustable shocks with Eibach pro lowering springs, regarded as one of the best set ups for uk roads, soon as i get a few hours spare ill get them on, along with a whiteline rear sway bar and drop links, should help with the understeer a fair bit, will then polybush eventually when time/money permits. I know exactly what you mean with neglecting them, i recently have bought a property myself, and know too well how they can strain the pocket!

Hope to catch you soon 😄
