Default polybushes

Hi, don't know much about this. Is it worth me getting the front of my car polybushed? what difference would it make and which ones should i get?

Cheers...

Chances are if the bushes in your car are 20 years old then you would proably notice a difference replacing them with standard items.

That may be the case, but I have come to the conclusion that Poly-bushes aren't all that. Alot of mine now need replacing and considering the low mileage of the car, I'm pretty disappointed.

Mine are Powerflex.

I have the full car set and its all starting to feel a bit nasty now. The car has only done 25000 miles in the 8.5 years that I have had it. I poly-bushed it 3 or 4 years ago, some are more recent than that. I plan to overhaul the suspension over the winter, but hadn't expected to have to re-do the bushes so soon.
