Default Front spring changed V40

Changed the front spring as one had about 100mm missing off of the end.
What a lovely, easy job; having done it on my TT I had visions of a flipping nightmare but no, easy peasy.

Had the same on a rear spring once. I didn't attempt it because it looked rather a difficult job. The springs are prone to breaking at the top I heard. Nice one in fixing the front one.
