I don't really want to split this lot up, but if there's enough interest I might

Complete pair of front struts with lowering springs, bearings, brake discs and caliper (although discs are a bit worn)
Caliper is included, just not in the photo.

They aren't technically "off" the car. They came with it.
The car has lowering springs already fitted, I think the ones in the photos are the ones on the car. I haven't trawled all the pages though, so perhaps there is some info somewhere.

From memory they're ok.. one has been welded up and the other seems in one piece.
I'll double check tomorrow

Got some pictures in the end.. it's been a bit mad today.
Don't really want to take the discs off, but I'll take a decent offer for the lot anyways.
Looking at the top, these seem to have adjustable shocks fitted?

I have no clue what these are worth. A quick search and it seems springs alone go for around £30-40.
I'm gonna ask £60 for the lot cos I just want it gone. If it turns out they are adjustable shocks, then you got a major steal ;)

looking at the top of the shock. It reminds me of the ones that turn.. like the old spax/koni, etc
