Ride on my sport feels a bit hard?

Just wondering what would cause this my brother has an 05 RRS s and the ride compared to my 05 Hse feels very firm and bumpy what would cause this? He has recently had the air suspension sorted could it be the bushes?

Can u adjust pressure in air bags? When both cars are together they look the same height.

It could be a multitude of things, from worn bushes to worn shocks...

You cant adjust the amount of air in the bags, but you can calibrate the ride height, but if both cars are sitting the same, its not likely to be that Strathearn Engineering

reason i asked the height was incase it had been calibrated incorrectly , so you can rule out the bags

Could be Struts as mentioned although unless its crazy miles i wouldn't have thought it would be that

Assume its got normal wheels??

The bags were put on by landrover specialist, both cars have 22" alloys and same tyres, the car has covered 70k miles, i thought it might be the bushes or dampners?

22's do feel terrible on the sport in my experience but if your comparing it to your own car on the same wheels then it can't be that.

As suggested it could be down to a number of things, get it booked in and checked out.
