What's the best price anyone has had this done for - four shocks and springs all round, fitted.

£95 per corner for a shock.
Plus springs from Joolz.
Plus fitting (3 hrs? I guess).
£650 all in plus vat?
Just a guess.

Are the Avo's any good then, I've been thinking about getting nitrons for mine as everyone rave's about them.

Seems the Avo's are a lot cheaper....anyone lucky enough to have tried both????

You gets what you pay for. The Avos are a good entry level adjustable damper but can be harsh and a tad crashy. The Nitrons are a different kettle of fish. they offer a much more comfortable and controlled ride even with stiffer springs than the Avos ever could. Ring Joolz and he will guide you through the best set up for your motor. If your gonna spend £££ and not be happy, i say spend £££+£ and know youve got some top kit to brag about in the next PH pub meet!

Email Julian at Joospeed as he knows a thing or two about shock absorbers on TVR's

Agreed, 620ish quid all in and fitted myself in a few hours with the help of a couple tins of WD40

I have nitrons on my cerbera and avos on my griff.I am happy enough with the avos except the bushes only last a couple of thousand miles,the nitrons are far superior and i will never buy another avo.They even look 10 times better!
