    You can quite easily tell any car on cut springs however, the after bounce is incredibly noticeable. Any car with proper suspension eg spring/shock / coilovers recover instantly and dont continue on bouncing like a 20c bouncy ball.

    no idea what the plate was, i was considering how much my excess was ....................
    Ah you saw it moving, I thought you were just refering to the ad.

    lol seriously u cant really tell if a car has chopped springs.. even if its heaps bouncy it has coilovers.. maybe not adjusted correctly or sumthing..

    no1 cuts springs these days unless the car is worth like 1000...

    yes you can
    coilovers dont make you bounce 19 times after a bump continuously.

    you can DEFINITELY notice ride quality on the car.

    proper suspension/coilovers will recover the instant they hit a bump, progressive springs, sport shocks, coilovers, whatever. chopped springs no.

    i can put my car on the firmest setting and it still doesnt bounce at all.. ive been in all 3.

    I wouldnt have any chop springs in any cars i'd ever own, even if you paid me i wouldn't do it. Safety and Handling is appalling, not to mention the overall ride is terrible!
    What’s behind you doesn’t matter..

    Are you 100% sure you're talking about the same car?
