A motor vehicle suspension comprising a leaf spring (24) of composite material extending transversely of the vehicle, pivotally supported at two spaced positions (25, 26) between its ends and connected at its ends to wheel carriers, wherein the spring is resiliently supported, at a central region thereof between its pivotal supports, by resilient support means (31, 32, 33, 34) and the bending stiffness of the spring decreases from its pivotal support positions to the central region. The spring is enclosed in a housing (29) between the support positions (25, 26).
