Hi Kevin,
I had the chance to fit the B1 springs and dampers this week, and I am absolutely delighted with the change. The car feels as it always should have done - still firm, but compliant, properly damped and really surefooted. It’s far more confidence inspiring than the limp dampers that came with the car originally. Thanks for a great bit of kit!
Cheers,
Mark

Hello Kevin,
Everything came in perfectly, it's on a car now, and WOW, wasn't really expecting that much. It's just superb, exactly what i wanted and perfectly suitable for our roads. Now it is a car, which completly mirrors my wishes and needs. So once again, really thanks for your hard work and this excellent piece of kit.
Regards, Tomas

This has to be the closest thing that BMW have made since the E30 M3. Intrigued by references to the M3 in an early "Autocar" editorial when the 130i was first born, Kevin Bird borrowed a car from his friendly local dealer. He was astonished by the potential of the chassis, and could luckily see through the obvious failings. The car had terrible traction, and the ride quality was awful. Both of these things triggering the DSC and traction control almost constantly in the wet.
