Why do you need springs?

Front shocks can be got for around 140 quid a pair.

1st rule....never believe Kwik-fitup   :y
I would get another opinion.

May just be shocks,
may just be springs...

may be neither!

That covers kwikfitup then. Never ever ever go there, ever. No not ever, not even in an emergency, ESP not in an emergency.

There is probably nothing wrong with the shocks and springs at all. But just to be sure, as said, what is wrong with the car? What symptoms do you have? Why take the car for inspection? Did it fail the mot perhaps?
