i suppose £2000 isn't too bad if you get it instead of magnetic ride or ACC. i'd have to wire it up to the mag ride/ACC switch tho. wouldn't be happy otherwise

Yes. it's 2000,-- € in Germany.

I never had the chance to drive a car with it, but I guess it's not
''adaptive'' like VW's DCC. You just have the presets to switch
between.
Damper quality will be much better than the cheap OEM though.

I bet it will ride very fine.  :wink:
