Where can I get a good deal on rear shocks?
I've been quoted £105.75 for a pair of Monroes (incl delivery) from MR Holland. Doesn't seem like much of a bargain tho.

Don't go for the Bilstein rear shocks though, as the hole the bolt goes through at the top is slightly too big and you'll get an annoying rattling noise from the rear before long. The Sachs ones in the link above are the same as the original Volvo OEM shocks, and fit perfectly. Not bad at £57.29 for the pair, including VAT and delivery.
