Thanks for the replies, chaps.
As I understand it, I can replace the dampers with Nivomat-made units which were available on the Rover (but not the MG) and that the standard, facelift-model springs may not 'balance' with the new dampers.
Wouod I be right in thinking there was no difference in springs between the facelifted Rover and MG specifications? If not, how much difference in firmness was there and am I (and more importantly, my passengers) likely to feel the rear of the car being under-damped because of the new units?
Also, I presume the change in dampers only would not change the ride height as this is set more by the springs.
Finally, John (and others), what is the ball park price for a pair of new Nivomat dampers?
Thanks again,
Steve
