I'm definitely buying coilovers for the car, and have heard FK and jamex are quite good. Any comments on where to buy / which ones are good? Don't want to spend more than Â£450.

Cheers

I have FKs and I'm very happy with them

People say Weitec's are better (as they are made by KW) as they don't seize up as easy as FKs.

But I've had no problems with mine and had them for nearly 7 months on a daily driver - I put motorcycle chain wax on them and clean them regularly though!

i have my FK's waiting to go on and hoping they wont let me down!!

german ebay is the best bet.
those ones posted by aaron are Â£250 and you will get what you pay for with a budget set.

Try a place called "Performance Solutions". They're based in Northampton I think but quoted me very good price on FKs when I was after some.

Don't have their number but they always have a page of adverts in PVW magazine
