Do you mean one has the black rubber surround whilst the other doesn't?

I suspect that the one without started to rot & was just removed & i would have expected the metal underneath the rubber which is now visible to be treated/painted to stop further rusting/rot. I'm not sure exactly why they are covered in rubber in the 1st place?

Are you on about the rubber cap on top of the strut mount rather than the bottom rubber surround of the strut mount that i'm on about? Either way, i personally wouldn't worry if one has it & the other hasn't as long as the condition of both is good.

I just don't quite understand why people bid for things & then change their mind??? 3 strikes & you should be out permanently.
