Stiffer springs are what you've just taken off! I doubt the Saloon will
be significantly longer than the Coupe ones. You might get away with
Touring ones but your best bet is to find some off an SE Convertible -
the rear end loading is all the roof and gubbins. It won't matter which
engine size it is as the %age of engine weight at the rear won't be
particularly significant.

Interesting to hear your experience.
