An appeal!
I have Sports Suspension Plus fitted to my MINI.
I'm looking for someone with either a Cooper or a One who would be willing to swap suspension. If I'm not able to sort out a swap then it'll be bye bye MINI. There's nothing wrong with the suspension BTW.
Post if you're interested. Thanks.
why the need for the swap - too harsh a ride? ?
If it's too harsh a ride - what size wheels do you have, Bad Dog? I have Sports Suspension Plus, with 16", and runflats, and I don't have any problems.
I believe the 17" runflats make it much harsher.
I have a set of standard cooper springs in the loft if that's any help:question::approve:

the last time he spoke of getting rid he converted to gas:(
Is the the big build up to air suspension??
Next stop "Pimp My Ride" for BDM's mini methinks and he's getting rid of the bits in advance!!
It's the ride, its far too hard. I've got 17" and normal tyres not runflats.
I'm not sure if the just springs will help, any advice welcome.
Try a set of 16" ! I don't mean go and buy some, well, not yet, but see if you can swap, and try it, it might make a difference?
Even with the runflats, I don't have any issues, apart from potholes, and there's nothing you can do about them.
On good roads - no worries.
It's just a thought - I"m no expert.
I'll agree with Smurf here. I've got the 16s, Runflats and SS+ and although its firmer than my old One, its not unbearable
The car used to have 15" and the ride was still fairly hard, I need to err on the side of caution at the moment so suspension will need to be changed. :(
