Hi All,

Anyone have any ideas where I can get a pair of new front shock abosrbers for my 1991 E30 318i Cabriolet? German and Swedish now list them as obsolete however they used to stock them for around £35 each. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Jason.

Ecp would be the obvious answer

I thought my local GSF were having a laugh last year when they told me I had bought the last pair! :o:

Thanks all, will try ECP. GSF can supply 38mm inserts but the Cabrio inserts are 45mm which they don't have.

Thanks again,

Jason.
