Depends what you want to replace them with? ECP or GSF do replacement units and as Rav said Sweep is in Sheffield.

not sure. only drive the car a couple of days a week, probably less than 6000 miles a year. dont want anything flashy, car doesnt have any mods on it and was going to stick to as original as possible.
was going to go to kwik fit and get a free suspension test but know they'll probably try to press gang me into spending a fortune.
is that any help?

Steer well clear of quickfit unless you want a proper buggering
send a PM to a member on here called Sweep, his name is Pete and he is in Sheffied and he knows his way around an E30 and will look after you.
