My car is in for its 12k service & a couple of jobs will need doing when I get a chance,when it comes back.
It will need new shocks at some point soon. I don't intend to do any track day's & don't get a chance to use the car as much as I should so can't justify spending ££££££££ on a set. can anyone recommend a set that are good for just burbling around with on sunny day's ? Also does anyone please know what the screen wash bottle cap is off of ? Many thanks in advance for any help. Doug

You will get lots of different views on this spanning everything thats on offer.

All depends on what you want, adjustable or not and also what you are willing to pay.

I personally went for Protech. They are a good price, have a good reputation, and come with a 3yr warranty. I cant fault them.

Just fitted some protech shocks too, so far so good and they didn't cost the earth. I don't intend to track the car and after reading reviews and comparing with Gaz saw them as the best option.

I'd be tempted to have the original billys rebuilt.
