Just had my car at mechanics to replace water pump and timing belt and whist there one of the rear shocks has become stuck whilst the car has been sitting on hoist. i had known the suspension was bad (rolls so much on corners are is wearing out tyres fast) but now will have to get it done asap as car isn't really driveable. Can see now the rubber mount on the stuffed shock has perished.
Anyway from reading through the forum i'm thinking of switching to coil overs as they seem to be a cheaper option as I want to replace all 4 shocks and springs (and mounts I guess) The cheapest option I can find after calling a few suspension places and visiting repco would be to buy coil overs from eBay stores in UK.
However I guess there is some risk with overseas purchases.
Does anybody have any feedback or have purchased something like this from these guys online or similar?
eBay - The UK's Online Marketplace
Or somewhere in Australia. I could get for similar price. This from UK $456 AUD delivered
