Why not there is plenty of info on this site i have cut springs as does mark and a few others on here. i am NOT repeat NOT saying that cut springs are better than lowered springs designed for the micra but with so little aftermarket love people have resorted to coilovers from a corsa for example. actual micra coilovers (check pollyp's blog) are in the several hundreds. all depends on budget and knowledge. but i have had my cut springs on for a good few months and they are perfectly fine.

I can put up with riding like a rowing boat in the wake of a ferry, if I can look good while doing it.

Lots of info in the lx blog, do a search for cut springs too. Basics are dont leave the cut end sharp, and have a plan for keeping the springs seated on full drop.
