I'd think yours will be pro-kit, with the black springs not the red one.

Mine was marked with both pro-kit and sport line.

I say this as I thought that a sportline kit wasn't made for the octavia.

It'll be interesting if they are in fact available as a sportline.

i had my B12 sportline fitted 2 weeks ago but it stil sits high just like OEM.

i spoke to eibach and bilstein and they said it should settle down in about 700 miles.

so far ive done over 450 miles and nothing has changed.

I had mine fitted last week on the Fabia. I had H&R springs on with the standard shocks before and the ride was crashy though the stance was about right with a 30mm drop.

The B12 kit has definitely raised the height close to standard but the ride is much better. It is far less crashy, stiffer than standard and from a quick blat round the lanes has improved handling.

I hope that the car will settle with time. 700 miles may take a month but at the moment I think I am happy to trade looks for performance.

my b12 sportsline seems to be getting harder with time when you chuck the car through corners but on the straight line its smooth. :love:

the car still sits at OEM height though. .

Maybe it's you vRS boys who can't see a difference in ride height, but unless I'm dreaming, there's definitely a difference in my Fabia Elegance estate

Big thanks to cheeze and Ben for arranging this - goes around corners much better than it used to, I actually stay in my seat now
