Does anyone have advice regarding purchase of new/recon shocks and steering rack?

1 shock at front and 1 at rear leaking and so change all round. MRRP £2,500 incl VAT (car has airmatic)

Steering rack leaking and so needs to be changed apparantly. MRRP £1800 plus VAT

Plus fitting costs.

Quite a chunk for a 52,000 mile car........

Any thoughts advice welcome.

Marc
