    Ring Koni and ask how much it'd be for new seals/rebuild. I've had a pair done for free by Avo before (must have looked newish/under warranty or something). IIRC it was near £30 a shock though.

    I've just sent them an email asking, didn't see a phone number for them on their contact us section.

    How much are they brand new then? Seem like a cheap bit of kit.

    So not that cheap, so the consensus is £100 for a set with blown fronts (including springs) isn't worth it?
