1 Shock from Volvo is over £600 . Ok Monroe is £450 for 2 if you can get them normally no stock tho.
why four? And i missed any mention of springs? And it is surely dependent on how bad they are? No mention of this in previous MOTs and it is only an advisory, might be worth a drive to see how strict the tester was?

I would be more concerned about the cost of the eye surgery i would need after seeing the interior in the flesh!! 😂
