Haven't really stomped on them yet, will give it a go later  ;D

What are they like mate? I was really tempting myself by them but need some justification do they feel much different?
I only tried the standard car previously but they're really good, need a bit more bedding in I think (only 60 miles so far) but it will stop on a sixpence when asked. Feels nicely balanced too.

I notice Platts Abarth have the Brembo's only on eBay for £1800 with a 'make offer'. I wonder how low they will go? Not for me as Konis and SS springs are my priority but could be worth a punt for someone?

why do they say "to fit 500 hatch and 500c with koni suspension or esseesse koni kit"?

Surely they'd fit a 500 with standard suspension, or kw's, billies etc...

They probably would but dealers can only fit to a car with Konis I believe.

On another note, after a few hundred miles and a bit of dry road mine have really switched on  ;D
