Default Eibachs fitted to 'Minky' tomorrow.

On thursday i went over a Traficc Calming hump and i heard a bang!!
turns out 'Minky' my Smart car has now a broken drivers side front spring!! after only 19.5k miles on a 52 plate!
seems to be a comman prtoblem on the smarts!
wel its booked into Smarts R Us tomorrow.

I've opted for Eibachs..... just like i had on my Scoob.
Does this mean i'll handle as well and 'dancin scooby doo' did?

I'm both sickened and appalled. A man calling his Smart Car "Minky". Group Buy on Loafer Lightener? Any Mincing Gel in Scoobyshop?

I fitted Eibachs to my smart roadster almost as soon as I got it & its transformed the handling as the local main dealer will confirm !

You now need a bigger turbo & decat exhaust remap tarox discs & green stuff pads
