FYI I can get the GTI shocks for £120 for all 4 and the Blistens are £157.

The B4s are pretty much an OE shock with only a slight increase in damping. Although, B4 shocks with Eibach springs is a very good setup for the money. I'm running Xsara VTS B4s with VTS springs which I'm finding a tad soft when pushing on and am seriously contemplating B6/B8s. They' re a few quid more mind!
The B4s are not harsh by the way.
