For some reason, most notibly one of my rear springs is sitting particularly higer than the other? I fitted brand new avo springs which lower about -35mm I believe but it is sitting almost standard height on one side and quite alot lower on the other? I did one side at a time; have I done something wrong or will they settle in onver a few days? Cheers

yup!

Some cars also like you to tighten up blots that go through bushes with the weight of the car acting on them - so they are not loaded/twisted.

sounds like you have either installed one of them inccorectly or you have been supplied with 2 different springs?

got any pics of the wheel off to see the assembly?
have you checked the serial numbers/codes on the springs/box match?

springs looked the same next to each other so I assume they were the same; installed the rubber bung and jacked the car up and fitted bolts back into damper; appears to be sitting all good but on one spring, 3 of the coils are tightly compressed and on the high side, only 2 are tightly compressed?

High side

low side

That driveway looks crooked, is it like that on the flat too?

yeah it is still uneven on the flat

Suppose swapping them doesn't take much effort, narrow it down to spring or install error.

I assume you have taken it for a good spin just to see if it settles back down again? They often take a couple of miles to settle to normal ride height, and then may still get slightly lower after a while.

Id do as C4llyT said above and swap them round and see what happens.
