Ive just bought a replacement polybush set for my 3" lift on my vit, Why not deal with them direct? I know they dont have the best reviews for customer service but i found them to be very helpfull and the parts arrived quickly. Also you cut out the middle man.

Spooky, I just bought a set for my 3" lift kit, but I got them through their UK distributer...
Specialist leisure stock (some) Calmini stuff in the UK - If it's mot in stock they can get it within a few weeks.
Should be a good comparison though, Pete, all in, how much did you pay including P&P etc.??

They must have changed their policy, I've tried that in the past and been referred to Specialist Leisure.

It cost £66 delivered and took 8 working days to arrive. I was happy with the customer service too! I dealt with jakem@calmini.com he was very helpfull.

Not 'much cheapness' unless you are sitting with a wad of Euro's,
plus a fair bit in P&P,
but it can be a source of parts quickly if it suits.

That's about the same as what I paid!
Weird. I guess you takes your choice!
