Hi Thomas,
I sold my 411 earlier this year, but I may be able to offer specific help with the suspension. I had both a 409 and 411 and recall reading somewhere (Setright, Oxley? can't recall) that even if the rubber bits look good replacing them all with new OEM Bristol parts transforms the handling of the car.
So in 1998, I spent NZ$4,693.50 (about £2,350) for a box full of new Bristol suspension parts as recommended by Brian Marelli. But I never got around to installing them. Now with the cars gone, it's probably time to get my money back on the parts. See attached photo for details.
If this is of interest, do let me know. They are boxed up, ready to go, and I prefer to sell the whole lot.
