JoeA Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Get them from ebay, awesome gti, venom motosport. Theres loads of places, all around the same price.Its recommended you purchase new top mounts and bearings for the front and bumpstops for the rear.

Zulley Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 (edited) Unsure about your question above but ive been looking for cheap coilovers, the best place is ebay, theres a few sets from £189.99-£225 with free delivery. Comfort cant be too bad can it..............can it?I mean is it really worth another £500 for a bit more comfort? Not to me.

heartagram Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Its not £500 just for comfort. Its £500 to get something that performs better in terms of handling and comfort as well as the build quality and longevity of the items themselves. Most cheapies tend to burst shockers and the locking rings snap. You don't get that with the more edpensive ones because they coilovers are stainless and the locking rings are plastic.

p900rty Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 I ordered some ta tecnics from there website. £205 delivered. Took about a week to come from germany. When putting them on the car I replaced the top mounts, bairings, and bump stops, they go low and really happy with the looks of the car. But it's really really bouncy I find but get used to it. End of the day you get what you pay for.. Buy cheap buy twice.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philplop Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 PhilJ in the Jackson Tuning section of Club Polo is usually the cheapest. His are the same as TA Technix/Jamex/JOM/eBay specials, etc, but he gets them direct from the manufacturer before the branding is put on.
