Stupid springs

Getting a monroe to replace the driver side one and hopefully the passengers ones wont do the same.

You shoud always replace shocks in pairs as they will wallow over time and the handling will be shit if you just do the one. Guy who had my car before me did 1 rear shock and it handled like a sack of shit.

A set of bilstein B4s is only 100 quid or 140 for all 4. Well worth it IMO.
