How much would you expect to pay to have a saxo lowered?
Front springs and rear torsion bar adjusted?
Thanks Ainsley

I can understand the trouble with torsion bars, but as for fitting the springs yourself  Why not attempt it?
Another friend paid £100 to have 4 springs fitted

Cheaper to take the fragile POS to the scrappers, you may get something for weighing it in as well?
