[W126 Coupe] H&R springs for 1989 560 SEC

[Marcus Johnson]

Hello all,

I am now the happy owner of an immaculate 89 560SEC. It took a while  
to find, but well worth the wait.

It's blue black (199) with 100,000km on the clock and is about to  
undergo the 'treatment'.

Firstly, I have obtained some H&R Sport springs for this and have  
spoken to the local agent who will be fitting them.

However, he says they are "very thick" and "like truck springs". This  
concerns me as I don't recall that much difference between the stocks  
springs on my previous car (1985 380 SEC) and the H&R springs I had  
fitted to that.

Does anyone have a correct (Euro) part number for the springs I could  
check?

PS: I have to say that the difference between the 380 and the 560 is  
quite substantial. I now have power, and plenty of it, whenever I  
need. It feels like a much more sophisticated car, even in stock trim.

With the new springs and wheels, this will be a lot of fun.


Cheers,

marcus
