wepWas in at volvo earlier getting some new plugs and figured i'd ask how much they would be for 4 new shocks, as i'm planning on fitting new ones for next spring/summer
i knew aberdeen can be quite an expensive place as everyone thinks theres lots of oil money,but these were easily the most expensive i have come across yet. 1120 nuggets for a pair of fronts, 1160 for a pair of rears!, i just got up and walked out the door laughing, internet it is then!
also spied a 3.0 V90 estate, never even knew they existed!

As for the shocks I know you can get them direct for a lot less than that, I'm sure someone will be along soon to confirm.
