[Tigers] Tiger/Alpine comparison

[michael king]

Tigers us ea heavier spring to allow for the weight of the engine. All
alpines sit quite high at the front as thats the way they were
designed. The cheapest way to lower an Alpine is to order the S3
Alpine springs from VB. They are well priced, new and will lower the
front of the car. Putting even stock Tiger springs in an alpine will
stiffen it up quite a lot, and if they are factory height will
probably not lower it.
