Title: That can't be right
Post by: tooleater on 30 April 2014, 17:41:43
Good news, I'm now the proud owner of an Mot certificate. As the guy at the station took under the motor to show the misting on rear shocks. I decided to call up Vx Pinner to place an order. Wanted £123inc Each :o. How rear cost more than front ???

Around £90 now for a pair on TC. Assume MV6 and not self levelling?

Mine were the second ones in the list...

L4 ident, but different part number on the shocks, put this down to the inclusion of the topmount kit in the box :-\

The guy I ordered the front springs and struts, discounted them to £388 inc + cam covers at £70 inc, he was defiantly older, the younger chappie could see on his system how much had been spent in 2 weeks, but was adamant when I asked for a discount. £123 for pair yes,but not each >:(
