Coil Spring Broken - Help

Post by Type23 » Thu Oct 12, 2017 3:54 pm

Just looking for some advice if possible. My Lotus Elise S2 Type 23 has just failed its MOT due to the Nearside Rear Coil Spring being broken. Can anyone advise the best place to try and pick one up at the best price?

Assume Type 23, Rover K series engined circa 2003? Std Bilstein dampers?

There may be people with ones spare after suspension upgrades that could help out?

You assumed right. 53 plate Type 23 S2 which is just the K Series engine.

Thanks for the link
