which uprated engine mount ?? - budd - 23-12-2013
well I tried to up-rated my own lower engine mount by filling it with polyurethane resin but despite looking good failed pretty quickly so I'm going to have to buy a proper one, but which of the widely available ones to choose?
Powrflex £30 -£35 dependent on type yellow, purple or black (race)? Spoox gpN £27.50? Vibra techic £30?
I guess all the above would do the job but as anyone any experiences or recommendations ?

car is a Xsara VTS so XU petrol, not to worried about access NVH, and I'm pretty sure there's not much to choose between then but if I'm going to buy I'd like to buy the rigt one so I'm not having to do the job again anytime soon.

Spoox just re-brand Vibra Tech which I use solely now and have stood up to the car's I run in various trims better than anything else I have used

cheers for that I'd been thinking HD rubber would probably be preferable to a poly bush but it's nice to hear a recommendation, BTW if Spoox are re branding VT bushes (and I'm sure they are as they look identical) I don't know how they are managing to sell them cheaper the VT, I know it's only £2.50 difference but it's usually the re brander that charges a premium, so it looks like I'll getting a Spoox Gr N bush at £27.50 delivered it sound good value.
