As per title, one insert is leaking, could both do with a refurb if i'm honest Hence price of £60. Both springs inc but no top mounts.
Pics to follow. :)

Ledas usually have an unusual shaped body. They have a shoulder about half way up where they increase in diameter, not sure if its the same on the coilovers

For those interested I can confirm they are indeed Ledas as they were from my previous car. They were painted yellow just to tart them up a bit and match the spax rear struts on the car at the time. Very expensive from new and the receipts were also present for them when I sold the car on so may be obtainable from shaun still. With a refurb by leda and a blast/paint they would be as good as new making a cheap setup for somebody.

Car sat like so on them...........

John........ no worries!

Mike..... I didnt have them done whilst I owned them. Id say an estimate for their age would be approx 8 year old. But do take into account that for the last 6 years they saw very little mileage etc. Like I said Im positive Shaun will have the receipt for them to confirm.
