For those that know what these are, you will know that these are very hard to get your hands on.
These lower strut braces make a substantial difference to the handling and turn in of any 306 and are miles better than anything made by OMP. This one is one of the later twin tube ones which is stronger and sits higher up to prevent smashing it against speed bumps (note, thats not a guarantee
)
Im selling this as i did have it on my car and it was taken off when i did my engine change. I haven't got the time any more to work on the car so i may as well pass this on to someone who will enjoy it. Its been painted badly in purple not to look pretty but purely to protect it. It does have a few scrapes and a dent but these do not effect the way it fits or works at all.
Im after £60 collected from Epsom or Ace cafe. I can also post it via a courier for an extra £5

I don't think i do but the tube is about 1.5" OD and it sits about 5mm away from the sump so its not low at all. Put it this way, it will never ever be an issue unless your car is 50mm or more lowered.
