Not too serious. Rear sill near the jacking point needs a bit of welding.

Also need to get a control arm replaced.

Does this look okay? I'm on a tight budget.

Any other recommendations?

Get a Lemforder one from ECP £57.60 inc VAT & Delivery - maybe even a bit less if you speak to Matt nicely :wink:

Cheap for a reason? it might last a couple of years, but like rob said,
go for the lemforder,(Which are being replaced with TRW versions)
they will last twice as long

Dont do ebay- GSF got a job lot and last time I grabbed one (no more than 2 months ago) they were circa £37 quid-

Dont think they were lemforder, but I fitted one the same 2 years ago to the beige one and no dramas there

Lemforder ones are listed as £76.80 on ECP website :(. Q- Drive are £46.74.

I'll give GSF a shout in the morning.

Thanks for the replies.

You need to use the "service25" discount code to get 25% off that price at ECP - which brings it down to £57.60

Q drive are sh1t.
