Gone for some KYB after a long chat with matt.
£120.50 +VAT from Motor Save on Stanningley Road in Leeds. Told a little white lie to get them that cheap but whatever saves me the money

Coil over's weren't in my buget so just got the KYB shocks.
Everywhere was quoting £80ish. so told motor factors i could get them for £65 (that was the lie) he said he could match it so told him i wanted it beating he said £60.25 +VAT ea. He's pricing some eibach spring's (also recommended by matt) too, sho cant wait to see what price he come's back with for them

Surely £60 plus vat is £70.50? and therefore more than £65?
You only buying two shocks?
I'm confused!!!!

front passenger side is leaking. so to change it i need to do both front ones, the £65 was before VAT as it always is when you call places like that. so the £65 would have cost £76.36.

RE: springs Chris has told me they are £135 with gold discount, but availability will depend on the dealership.
