Whilst the rear bar mounts look like the afterthought they are, the chassis is built for the air suspension only: No structural parts for the self-leveller so it can't be retro-fitted if/when the owner reverts to cheaper $prings.

The Lady Sarah was born July 1994, but classed as a '1995 Classic model'

What's the model code of Lady Sarah? I though all 95MY were soft-dash but I can't recall if yours is or not. Yes the rear cross-member under the seats is round for the chassis that can't fit a load-leveller and a formed box section for those that can. I was extremely surprised to see the coil spring soft-dash with the leveller.

EAS has to have sway bars. The front springs are valved together whenever the vehicle stops for more articulation. The sway-bar is the only roll-stiffness the front has at that point.

Yes, is a 'softdash'

Vogue SE, 3.9V8, BW transfer case and ZF 4 speed auto, 4HP22 if my memory serves me. Sorry, can't check for sure as she's sleeping over at my son's residence these days...

Yes! Me too! I've got the Brooklands Gold Portfolio book of old reviews and that's an education. (And the ignorant American ones are a real hoot.)
