Koni shocks and a decent set of springs such as Ahmed's, I don't really believe in the coil overs and then you have the expense.
I have just done my back suspension and put standard shocks back on as I don't want the aftermarket stuff, I still have my Koni's although one is no good, but the other is good.
If you want you can have the Koni's of me FOC (So NOT a for sale post to the mods) although as I say one needs reconditioning but I don't know anyone that does this, if not this offer applies to anyone so long as you can collect otherwise I will be scrapping them.

Thanks for the help people,
They only thing I was thinking was with the Gaz coilover kit I would be able to adjust the height back to standard and set to a soft setting?
I have already changed the springs to get the standard height back but it still sits lower than my mates 3 door

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
i tried getting some ahmed springs from grove and there was none for sale and ahmed said he needed five orders to go ahead with the order,so i got some avo shocks which are ok for my weekend / track car and so far so good

Mine is at standard height,17's and strut braced front and rear.I have tried full soft too full hard and I just seem to get the same outcome.You find yourself seriously pothole watching I must say though as I did not fit them so I have no idea what the spring ratings are.
Imo the Gaz are a budget coilover.I personally would go with the above of K&A.

I have the Koni sport adjustable shocks with AVO chassis dynamic springs which are standard ride height (pretty much same height as original ford ones) but they are supposed to be 30% uprated which work very well as when you give it big licks the exhaust doesn't hit the road anymore ha, i use mine on the road with a few trackdays a year poly bushing the whole car makes a big different especially with a Group A diff mount which often gets over looked
