Cost? Just under £1000 so about $1800.including springs And these are the Emulsified oil ones (Nitrogen Filled) the same as sold by Racers Edge.

Zero performance difference.

Ran with one on, off, half on, and on fire No performance difference whatsoever.
Looks pretty and give you something to lean on when poking around the back of the motor, but that's about it.

Keep me informed, i will prob be looking to sort the suspention next year. Mine has the M030 Konis but they have done 90k miles now so must be getting tired.

Sounds like the Leda are the way to go.

A friend of mine broke the lap record at Rockingham 1st time out with a set of them! Then drove the car home. Koni's are good but they are now getting a bit old after 90,000.
