mine have gone at 84k...

ive heard if you upgrade these bushes you get a real harsh ride, so probably best to fit geniune ones...  who am i to comment tho..  :laugh:

If you fit poly bushes then yes the ride quality will suffer but fit the fabia VRS bush or the Ibiza Cupra R bush and they are none voided rubber bushes so you won't notice any harder ride.

These fit http://www.vwspares.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=1339 and for £10.95 they are a bargain when the LCR ones are £40 + each
