MOT - both bottom arms shot (would you buy these?)
-> 206 Problems

my car failed on both bottom arms, I've seen this set cheap on eBay and just wanted your opinions it from a-z who are a well known autoparts supplier.

www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331...EBIDX%3AIT

I've priced them up from euro car parts and just both arms alone are £60

You get what you pay for..... but that's cheap if the quality is ok

Be lucky if they last a year before they want replacing again Wink

I'm guessing genuine parts will be expensive will ring in the morning they gotta be £30-60 per side but understand well that you get what you pay for.

About £150 per side at the dealer.
Lemforder around £70 per side at ECP

Go any cheaper and you'll pay later.

GTi versions are £120 per side from my dealer (parts only) so HDi should be cheaper.

Try mister-auto but expect to wait 3-4 days for delivery as their stock is in France.

Buy cheap, buy twice.

I agree with the guys here,if the car is a keeper for now,then do the math:

Buying Cheap Spare Part=Low Quality parts=short lifetime=pay twice to replace them.
Buying fairly expensive (OEM) spare parts=Highest Quality parts=Long Lifetime

and you will forget all about it.

Piece of mind I'd go with main dealer, as previously said in thread you get what you pay for

As previous original or Lemforder. You wont get a year from those ebay ones.
