interest in koni shocks?

Hi. I just bought a full set of Koni adjustables from a guy I met on a French car forum (for a 205 GTi) at around 30% off! He's now ordering me some for the bug, but they're not in the country at the moment. Anyway the point of all of this is that when I asked him if he'd mind if I told people on this forum he said ok. So I'm just putting out feelers for how many people would be interested in getting konis for their dubs? ps: just in case there are any cynics out there, no I don't make any money on this. I'm just such a nice guy :thumb [Edited on 27-10-2004 by ruckus]

No Konis are made in Australia. None at all...

But Ikon motorcycle dampers are Koni designs made under licence in Albury. Well, assembled in Albury. Parts are made all over the place and put together in beautiful downtown North Albury.

Konis come from Holland originally, but they also have factories in other European countries, from what I gather.

The printers advised that they would bring the deadline for the magazine forward by a week... it was too late for me to hit the road and still do the job I needed to do, so I had to do it all by phone from home.

Now I just have to be on deck at Bowral Saturday morning...

And another satisfied Froggy customer gets his strut inserts tomorrow.

Yep, that's right on Ikon's, I have a set :thumb
I believe their only for models no longer made by Koni, and only motorcycles as far as I know.

I have Koni yellows in the GTI and Koni Reds in the wento, and if I were you, unless you have stock springs, I would go the extra and get yellows.

Oh, and my reds (hydro's) were made in Germany...

There was quite a number of people who e.mailed me about Konis and Spax... but nothing came of any of it.

As everyone knows, I can organise super prices on these products, delivered to your door.

Please don't be afraid to e.mail me... konidiscounter@ramojan.com
