they dont look like sportspacks, but whatever they are they look terrible..
and not worth the price imo, i would want to see something immaculate for that price.

Yes, well mine arrived special delivery :wink: , lots of cans of Red Bull in the front passenger foot well. 8)

Caponix, you are about right in terms of what they cost. However its pay now or pay later - since I bought my 1978 moke its made me realise how little mechanical attention my 1988 Mini needs, not to mention the fact that mechanically everything feels alot newer. 8)

If there are shocks in the rear it is no longer hydro suspension, it's been converted to dry.
Hydro won't work without the helper springs.

If the steering feels heavy check your tyre pressure specialy on the front and or get new tyres..you will notice a big differance
