I think you're right, they're '30%' uprated with shorted pistons and lower springs, yet £200+ cheaper than even standard replacements.

Christ that's cheap James! 
Are we talking AP, as in the brake and clutch people or is this another AP?

Different AP (think someone mentioned they're made by KW), but as someone pointed our they're not actually coilovers, just an uprated kit.

Had them on the Mazda & Fiesta, I rate them to be honest I only started to have issues with them when I was really pressing on in the Mazda. But it's a big heavy FWD car so I'd imagine any coilover would start to suffer. With damping set to soft it was still too hard on the front end.
For that price it's a no brainer really

I haveen considering AP suspension also but fo the corsa and there over £400 so ended looking at there fixed rated kits but im unsure if they will be too soft for the weight of the engine.

Might be a good compromise. If you don't take the car on track much or at all, you wouldn't want it rock solid on a day to day basis.
