What's the difference, why is one rear shock £30 and the other £70?

Slightly different part numbers it appears  :-\

Saloon vs Estate? Although both say they will fit mine, based on the reg.

Or you could buy the Sachs ones for similar money knowing that it will fit perfectly...

Because they are genuinely OE ::)

No issues fitting B4 to TBE a few months back.  Everything fitted as it should.

Different batches, with different wholesale prices...

Which negates any saving over buying VX shocks...

Look up the parts on other sites, partly because Demon Tweeks are retards.  BTW, Demon Tweeks told me, after they failed to deliver, that they don't actually stock any, and sell them on behalf of others.  So they are full of shit as well.

Theres a lot of that about these days and it pisses me right off. I don't think businesses should be allowed to take peoples money for things they don't actually sell.
