amazak 3 Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 Ok, bought these of ebay, collected it today, seller did not say anthing about this issue. Drove around 50 miles to collect it, in the end I took it hoping it will still be roadworthy as the bloke said it will be fine. It is only the one side that is damaged, will this be ok?

philtvr 0 Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 And back on ebay next week!! Link to post Share on other sites
amazak 3 Posted October 9, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 This is a joke, had a bid on these coilovers, decided to have a closer look as did not want to be dissapointed again, and guess what...exactly same problem, look at the second picture, the top front shock. They are the same brand as the ones I bought..........why do people do this!!!!I am glad I did not win this set as well, Link here.....http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330172095102 Link to post Share on other sites
H19LNE 0 Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 I suggest u get brand new coilovers so atleast u know u got a decent set whereas buying second hand will bcome more expensive if u had 2 buy again.Better 2 buy once than twice ! Link to post Share on other sites
Ciaran 4 Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 it was said to u the risks of buying second hand but it's still not fair that people blatantly lie in adverts. If your interested my koni's are still for sale and i might do ya a deal seeing as i feel sorry for ya and the fact i just got a wopping pay rise. PM me if your interested Link to post Share on other sites
