Wanted - New or as good condition as possbile Front Strut

Post by saintjamesy89 »

Hi All,

Im after a new or as good as possible condition front strut for my GT.

I was lucky in winning one on eBay for £35 that had covered 3000 miles before coming off when the car was scrapped (I was very skeptical but it looks as though this could be true, it's almost spotless), so am looking here (aswell at french ebay, leboncoin and just about everywhere else) for another before I go over to Chevronics and pay £285 for one! Although they do give you £50 odd back when you give them your old strut.

Part number is 95 650 942.

Thanks.
