Coil overs for v50

[JT]

Any opinions on these, I'm not sure as they seem quite cheap

They're the same make as I have on the C70, work well, but a bit bouncy.

Can't adjust the damping ???

I sold a set of these B14's yesterday :

http://www.partsforvolvosonline.com/product_info.php?products_id=7751 (http://www.partsforvolvosonline.com/product_info.php?products_id=7751)

from previous customer feedback you will definatley have to adjust rear camber when fitting coilovers to this model.

we offer these options:

adjustable upper rear arms £196 pair
link (http://www.partsforvolvosonline.com/product_info.php?cPath=28_948&products_id=8527)

adjustable bolt kit for rear arm:
link (http://www.partsforvolvosonline.com/product_info.php?cPath=28_948&products_id=8247)

you might have more of a problem on the front, because it is the sit in a cup design rather than bolt to stub axle you cant use camber bolts. I couldn't find anybody who makes an adjustable top mount at the moment.

hope this info helps to know in advance of a kit purchase.

But obviously you couldn't drive it as you didn't have a license. ;) How the hell did you fit in a mini anyway?

It was set up as a ministock car and then made roadworthy again. There was a second set of mounts for the drivers seat 2" further back to take a bucket seat. I just put the standard seat in the modified mount. I was essentially sat in the back.
Quick little motor that. Great fun in the forest enclosures :)
