This ground has been covered before - but - it's relevant here:
Has anyone got rear cargo springs, and if so, are they that bad when the back is empty? It gets said the rear becomes bouncy and skittish unladen.
I went to standard springs/shocks/anti-sway-bar (240 estate) a few years ago after a Nivomat leaked so I swapped over to standard - and if there's no load in back, it's not a problem, the rear height is ok, and ride is good.
But I do also occasionally have to move heavy stuff around (say 100kg of compost bags), or there's people in the back plus a bit of luggage - and the rear end goes too low. I have a tow-bar, but really wouldn't fancy doing any towing with it.
Or does anyone use pumpable air-shocks - that would be a way to adjust according to use.
