Default Suplex pattern coil springs

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3913936549...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Am shopping for bits, had been quoted £85 + delivery + VAT, £30.33 all in, here.

Too good to be true?

I know this is a month old, but I took a look.
The set for sale were for a 2.8, were you aware of that?

I checked out the company, they seem pretty legit with all the right certifications.
They seemed to talk a lot about their warehousing facility and how well their product is made, but stopped short of explicitly saying "Made in Germany".

That's the only thing I picked up on. Doesn't mean that it's not a good product though...

Default Thanks

Hi,

Never purchased, thanks for pointing out wrong car!

I usually wait to check stuff out here before parting with my hard-earned...
