Well... as some of you know my new sparkly 207 is being made as we speak, however in the mean time I thought I would do some investigating on prices if I was too keep my 306. The front suspension has been lowered before in it's life but whilst it's on it's original 14 inch meridian wheels, it looks stupid so I decided to take it to a peugeot stealership (different one to the one I have bought my car fomr) and ask them how much it would be to "un-lower it" back to normal height..
£793.40!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I nearly fell over at that price, the labour alone was about £68 an hour. Absolutely crazy.
Just as well I don't need to do it... :S

You not thought about going to a scrap yard? You will pickup the full suspension for no more than £100 and would take 2 hours to change over. Then you can sell the lowering stuff on ebay for a profit. Orrrr find someone that wants to swap
