the drivers side front spring has just snapped on my type 85 CQ

Are new ones cheap? or should this be an 'opportunity' (excuse) to upgrade the suspention?

I just can't decide. I do have half a coilover kit in storage.. that was put on the back burner and forgotten about. Unfortunatly it does require a few bits to complete.

Best to change in matched pairs too.
I used H&R but again not sure they are available anymore.
Alternatively I know a company that can make to order...
