Ditched the PI springs last week, which certainly did not match my 9k Aero. Paid a visit to Abbott Racing and got a set of their springs fitted. Boy, they are great! Better handling and a surprisingly good ride to boot. Ed showed me their wishbone bushes & they looked so nicely made that I had a set of those fitted too.
I can report that their service was fantastic. They topped up my washer fluid, changed a rear light bulb, found a 5p that was driving me mad rattling away in my seat and adjusted the tow-in. & the best bit - no labour charge . Did I catch them in a good mood, or what?
I must say that there is still an aching chasm in handling terms between the Aero and my Elise. Not a lot you can do about the odd 750kg weight difference, combined with poorer structural rigidity, I guess. Of course, they are very different beasts.
