Looking at a change of direction for the mods on my car and offering my Bilstein B14 coilovers for sale - this is tentative as I will need to buy something else before I have these removed but can do so pretty much immediately once I have a commitment to buy and a small deposit.

I bought these from Awesome GTI for £800 and would like £600 ovno.

They were fitted to the car on May 10th at 64,600 miles - the car is sat outside the house at the moment while I am in Ireland and from memory it has just turned 74,000 miles, so just under 10k miles use in the last 12 months.

In good condition, one of the labels on the rear strut is scratched, but they are otherwise great.

Body control is fantastic and handling very good with these fitted. No pics of them removed from the car, but it looks like this (currently dropped somewhere in the region of 30mm).

And to give you an idea between mine and a standard one:

Ideally collected from Leicester, but can ship at cost with a courier.

Back to the top

how do you find them in way of comfort?? and how low do they go??

They are harder than standard suspension, will go a little lower than in the picture, I have a couple of threads left but there's nothing stopping you taking the adjusters out of the rear if that's your thing.
