The 2011 C-207 I was driving failed the MOT test because of the back spring.
With that it's down, I'm confused about which aftermarket springs to get.
I could get regular ones put in at the back, but it would probably make the car look terrible.

I cannot tell you the brand because I purchased the vehicle unaware that it was lowered.

Very well. In what way are you enquiring?

Assuming both springs are intact, is it correct that one is damaged? You may have to measure the old spring's height, coils, wire diameter, and diameter if you can't find any marks on it.

Assuming it's only the rear spring, wouldn't it be sufficient to replace both of them?

Are you planning to do that?
You could use any of the major brands; I just don't have one to suggest.
