Haha, oh totally. Complete overkill for a strictly street car. I have heard of hottuning coilovers leaking though. The old man had a car in at the workshop a few weeks ago with new coilovers which were the same colour and style as hottuning ones (don't know what brand) and they were leaking.

Having said that, if everyone says they're good, go for it. Too cheap to knock back. Cheaper than a set of lowering springs and some new struts/inserts!

got a price of 190 pound off the ebay store and 210 pound shiped :S

thats about 850au right, still seams ok considering a full set of shock's would be 500 along in Oz.

does evorobin do MK1 coilovers? or does the MK1 share part compatibility with the MK2

robin does mk1 as well. he sells them for 700 to your door. mk2 is the same as mk3 with the hottunings but mk1 is different.

So you went for the Mk1 spec coilovers for your cab? How much did that set you back?

Apart from the mkV golf and the awd stuff like R32/S3 there isn't many vag cars hottuning don't cover. Price for mk1/2/3 is $700 + postage for reference. I can also organise someone to fit them for you too.
