shockies

[Biff]

hi all,
I have noticed the posts on Koni shock absorbers recently (and in the past),
are these the only ones to buy?
I am on a bit of a budget and went to Monroe for a free test, they said mine
were ok, but not quite as responsive as they should be.
The suggestion was made that a set would be in order and to take advantage of
the "pending" summer driving check, I could expect to be recommended I get new
ones.
Is gear like Munroe out of the question?
TIA
Biff
