Heya guys,
im new to the site so sorry if this topic has been covered befor,
has anyone brought these befor http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/COIL-OVER-COILOVER-VW-GOLF-MK1-CABRIO-SUSPENSION_W0QQitemZ150114236784QQihZ005QQcategoryZ40192QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
they seem very cheap as my last car would have cost me about £600 for coilovers, any feed back on this product will be very helpfull

Been asked over and over, you can buy em.. but you'd be insane. Decent springs/struts will cost you more than £200.. remember this is your suspension you're talking about here.. spend another £150-£180 and get some decent coilovers like FK's or something.

Unbranded coilovers for £200 - you'd be mad.

You know what I think they could be ok for cruising the roads, but I would no take them out on a track for love or money they have SAE pass marks but even I could say I have one tatooed on my behind!
It's a hard one it could be a batch which had some bad ones in and its pot luck (NOT SAYING THAT IT'S TRUE!)
But hell £200?? Thats cheap, but Wietec must offer some in the region of £300-£400 TUV approved and kite marked for sure! Safety vs pocket mmmmmm!

In Holland they go for 289 euro's. More than the £200 guess shipping might be a consideration?

i brought those ones, seem fine to me, but then i dont use it on the track at all! i think to be honest it is all a matter of opinion, a mate of mine has a 500 bhp cossie which is often on the track and he has had no end of coilovers ( koni spax etc etc) hes now running jamex coils with ledar springs and says its the best cobo so far. imop shox are shox but spend a little more on the springs if you intend to take it round the track.

I've got these on my mk4 as a temporary thing but tbh they seem absolutely fine, fitted really well according to the vw specialist that did them and ride is good. Only do about 80-100 miles a week so for £185 (which is what I paid for them!) they are baragin.
