Default XJR rear suspension

Hi

I have a Daimler Super V8 (Jaguar Vanden Plas) 1998 x308 with factory sports suspension (same as XJR). My rear springs are a bit low and soft so I'd like to replace them with new original ones (together with new shocks).

Now I have a problem. It seems to be hard to find a new pair. A few months ago they were easy to find. Now I've tried britishparts, davidmanners and sngbarrat and no one of them seems to have them in stock anymore.

Does anyone know where to get a new pair of original XJR rear springs?

Arre

The 3 vendors you've listed use the same supplier. And they're the same cost as Jaguar, contact the main agent?
Or, use X300 springs? JDHT has a shop online,

Thank you!

Is it really possible to use x300 rear sports springs on a x308?

They are listed as different items. What's the difference?
