I bought these second hand but I've not actually driven the car on them, just fitted them and rolled the car about.
The konis themselves are in really good condition. there are a few chips from the yellow powdercoat on the fronts, especially round the edge of the spring cup where i was a bit rough with the spring clamps.
rears are pretty mint, just a bit of a rub mark where the rubber boot catches occasionally.
will come with 2 sets of springs. One set are ahmed bayjoo spec, fronts are fairly new, just a little bit of surface rust here and there. Rears are a bit older, and have been powdercoated silver, then i've given them a light dust over in silver paint to tidy them up.
the other set of springs are unknown... think they are spax.
I will get some better pics up when i take them off the car tonight or tomorrow.
Collection preferred from northwich cheshire. i can find out on post but it wont be cheap!
Im going to ask £300ono
Quick pic for now

Best springs for a 3dr cossie these. I,m running the track spec and they seem a very good compromise for my local hooning. I think the 3dr and 2wd saph fronts are slightly different sizes
. If I was selling 2nd hand i'd ask £250-300 for the set.

I found an old PM from when I bought them., I paid nearly 300 with the spax springs fitted, so I think 300 is a good price. With£160 worth of ahmed springs as well.

No sorry I won't split, I would sell the spax springs separately but not the ahmed ones.
And yes it is a full set of front and rear.
They are now off the car so I will take some better pics later. Might be short of a set of top mount bearings and bushes though.

I'm still interested, but trying to convince myself I can unload the bits I don't want. 
Is there a part number on the Ahmed springs that prove they are Ahmed springs? (no offense intended to you.)
Cheers

No there is no part number, the fronts were bought from mike rainbird so are 100% genuine, should have the receipt somewhere, the rears I bought second hand but are definitely identical in every way to a set a mate bought of rainbird.

I believe it is about -20mm all round. And yes they are perfect for a 3dr
I sent my old set of konis to Glenn a while back and I think it was about 20 for postage. That was without springs though so let's say 320 posted
