Might consider a set for my mk4 Golf now I've spent a bit of time looking at your cars stance.

Rich's sits lower than my Ed30 did on H&Rs. Pretty sure his dampers are F***ed  :signLOL:

5000K oil change

Millers Nanodrive 5w40
Oil Filter
Pollen Filter
Heath-Robinson magnetic sump plug

Ramp extensions cos "too low"

Made 3 versions of these... which either didn't work or broke. Rainforests suffered as a consequence!  :signLOL:

I have come to the conclusion that the ride of my car is absolute garbage..... any ideas on what to throw money at to fix it?

Hmmm possibly. Wondering wether or not to go PSS10 do it's actually adjustable, rather than fixed damping that might be too hard

I need your ramp extensions! 
Did exactly the same as you but suffered an 'Edition 30 splitter split' when my bit of plywood snapped mid drive up! (you saw it!)
 
I reckon you could start selling them.... :laugh:

Magnetic sump plug - are there two glued together?
