New Adamesh front springs installed now.
Front ground clearance raised by 50mm ( 2 inches ) from 90mm to 140mm. Both front and rear end is now lowered by 25mm' ish.
I was a little worried about what this would do to the look of my car, but honestly: it's still a good looker isn't it
The comfort of the drive is VERY much improved. These stupid low Majestic springs where really bad for the car.
I love the car even more now and hereby say THANK YOU to all who contributed in this thread
A few pics from the proces and the mandatory "before and after" photos.
Did you get a chance to measure the thickness of those coils? Looks like the old springs may have thinner coils, making the spring _rate_ lower ("softer" spring). Technically, the old spring looks taller at rest. No wonder you were bottoming out...

Your front fender was setting about 1/2" below the top of your Tire, when it should be about 1/2" above your Tire...It appears you have changed the Springs now as it looks about the same as mine now! They should always set where the Fender is about 1/2" above the Tire... My XKR has the Handling Package and 20" Montreal's.....And I'm assuming your Wheels are 18" Centuar's but either way for drivability, you need about 1/2"...
UPDATE
Supersprint is way low!
