Bilstein B8 Group Buy... Anyone Interested?

[DPM]

We're thinking of arranging a Group Buy for the Bilstein B8 dampers for 5 or more people at £399 a set!

Any takers?

I may well be interested as I have a broken coil spring on the car at the moment and looking to replace the springs/shocks with top mounts in 1 go.

Is this a very good price then?

 

[DPM]

We did retail them at £549 so not a bad price at all.

 

[DaveMK^]

any pics?

 

[DPM]

 

[MikeA3]

I'd be interested - especially if H&R sprigs were discounted as well

 

[S3IZZO]

I'd be interested in a group buy on Bilstein PSS9's if there's one going

 

[DPM]

I'm affraid the Group Buy is just for the Bilstein B8's.

 

[S3IZZO]

Just for the 8L's?

 

[DPM]

Yeah, sorry mate.

 

[Ian W]

I could be interested in this, depends when it was going to happen though.

 

[S3 SAF]

[DPM]

As soon as we have the 5 names.

[DaveMK^]

what springs and how much would they be for these? Anyone recomment them or used them before?

 

[DPM]

Most people normally go for the H&R springs which are £155.

 

[fingermouse]

Thanks,

Argh I had to book the car in and get a grands worth of work done this week lol If its still going next Thursday i'd be interested.

 

[j4jon]

Are the B8's the shorter ones or the standard height ones?

 

[DPM]

Shorter.

 

[GT130]

Mate, can you put up a link to the specific shocks on your site as all I could see was sets which included springs...could not find the B8's...



Can someone also detail what the the diff. springs are like - eg hard, very hard etc etc Back in the golf days everyone fitted the eibach springs but i think i remember reading they are very hard?

From what I have seen these shocks are the best option/most popular for the S3 - is that right.

Cheers

 

[DPM]

The B8's aren't listed on the website at the moment mate.

 

[j4jon]

I maybe interested in this

 

[god_thats_quick]

I'm almost certainly interested in this depending on when it is... yes Jon I really am that indecisive and I've changed my mind again

 

[j4jon]

So now you are going to modify it?

 

[Ian W]

When is this happening then? I'd say im now a definate aslong as its after next Friday when i've been paid !

 

[DPM]

It'll happen as soon as we get the 5 definate names.

Thanks,

Damian @ DPM

 

[vanilla_ice]

If there were more than five is there any chance of a further discount?

ICE

 

[DPM]

I think we'll be lucky to get 5 at the moment but if there was further discount it would have to be 10 plus people and that would just work out as free delivery.

Damian @ DPM

 

[Ian W]
