Trophy suspension

mikeh · Dec 9, 2011

Ideally front and rear. Will consider with or without springs (I'm after some MF items).

Cash waiting.

£2k for mine. Fully refurbished fronts only 2k ago. Rears are good as new.

mikeh · Dec 10, 2011

If I had £2k to spend, I'd buy brand new.

Thanks for the offer, regardless.

That depends if the recent price decrease was just for the last in stock sets or permanent.

Does that mean you are planning to fit alternative suspension?

as everyone must of seen the new prices for sachs likes been said if they were for last stock but if not, £1,000 for the front pair and for the price of sachs rears and eibach sportline or mf springs comes well under 2k

If I sold them for 2k yes. I'd rather have ast's.

Fronts were £1500 each without vat. Check your facts.

Well I'm not going to get into that argument again but if the recent price decrease is permanent there is no chance of you getting £2k anyway, I bought my spare set for £380.

Perhaps you should check yours, they were recently reduced to something like £600 each.

To be honest, I've seen loads of sets go for £400-500. Has anyone actually ever paid £2k for a second hand set? I mean, why would they when as you say, you can pick up the likes of ASTs or probably even Blistein B16s for less or the same money.

sorry to burst your bubble, but you are the one that needs checking his facts. they have come down in price by some drop and if you think you would get 2k for second hand then your dreaming im afraid

Johnny E · Dec 10, 2011

Ive just paid £810 plus vat for the 2 front and £186 for 2 rear Sach shock's.

If someone wants them for 2k they'd be pretty desperate. I was seeing how desperate they were. But yes I'd rather have ast's for track.

I need to clear some space in the garage so I'm about to list two front dampers on ebay, clean - done around 5k (my spare set that have been gathering dust for two years)

To save me the hassle of ebay, do you want to make me a realistic offer?
