I just dropped mine coil overs on front with a 40mm drop and meant to be 40 drop on rear but I think it's more like 60 and it don't take much to bottom the shock I'll try upload pics tommrow but if u do find some decent shocks let me no

Avo 108 gbp (each)
iwouid have alook for Bilsteins, found one site here,

60 odd quid each, ithink every other Make is Megga bucks,
The cheapest alternatives is, KYB shockers, ive put a pair on the front of the lag, there much stiffer than the standards what where on , they where cheapish,
ithink theres plenty of them on Ebay for the 406s,

fronts are slightly more expensive,
