    Ok, so my little 205 has got a upper and lower strut brace..... I`ve got
    Spax springs fitted.....
    I should hopefully be getting my 1.9 beam axle with disc....
    The car handles very well now... not a lot of body roll.... so what
    advantage would i gain from fitting adjustable shocks front and rear.....
    something like Koni....sports.....?
    Would they work ok with my spax springs...
    Also wheres a good place to buy them as the only shop i see that advertises
    them is Larkspeed... and i`ve not heard the best of stories about them...

    fronts r £85.00 each
    rears r £45.00 each

    So £260 in total !

    Which is about what I paid for a pair of yellow (adjustable) koni dampers
    for the front of my last Alfa 33 - and well worth the money! (2 dampers
    only)

    Certainly for italian cars, (road or track) konis are the biz - if they work
    as well for your Pug then empty your wallet, sonny! My konis came from
    camberley auto factors here in portsmouth which i believe is the UK agent
    for koni.
