I have had my 11 plate 200 for a year now having bought it from Renault Leicester , it is a full fat with a cup pack well that is what I was told, it has the red calipers and they are the factory paint not resprayed,
As I am considering getting coil overs I have been reading through suspension threads and have noticed comments that cup springs have a blue and orange dot, well having had my wheels off for brake striping and cleaning a few times I know that my springs have a blue and purple dot. Would this mean I have non cup springs?
When asking why the previous owner had traded in the car before i bought it the salesman said that the guys wife did not like the ride of the cup suspension, so they traded it in for a non cup'd Megane, this would possible suggest that maybe the guy got it change from cup to non but the wife still didn't like it and so they traded it in.
So basically is blue and purple dots the markings for non cup springs?
