Thats the thing, because 340's use inserts you have to find a shorter insert, and none of use can find one shorter, and no one makes them. Avo qouted me £150 each insert to get some made 2inches shorter... :oops:

Do the polos use inserts, as in the damper comes out of the strut? or is the strut one piece?

Wtf is that ginger 206 in one of those pictures. Even 206's deserve some kind of a hug, especially when that happens to them. Looks like a another white 300 in the same pic though
