Hi, after a set of 70mm lowering springs please, or pair of fronts.  not intrested in homemade chopped springs thanks, would consider less of a drop but ideally want to go low. 
I am going to quite a few more shows this year so could pick up from there save posting? what you got. thanks Martin.

Very similar to mine then, I run -70 Avo's with some cheap dampers (mistake) and it rides fine but could be improved, I plan to get some better dampers this winter, I'm happy with the springs.
Height wise, its just above the wheel arches, great stance in my opinion, the only time I have a problem is when camping in a field, when turning it rubs the arch a bit, apart from that all good.
Your not too far from me (evesham), if your over this way you are more than welcome to have a look/go in it to see what its like.
