Dacia sandero front suspension springs

    I have been told I need to replace my front suspension springs. It would seem that the person who had the car before fitted the wrong ons and they are too big and scraping the inside of the bodywork when I lock the wheel to turn. I have been told €500 from a main dealer just for the springs!! Not even to fit them. It needs either the brown or white springs which for skme reason we can't seem to source through parts suppliers around here. Anyone have any ideas or advice please?

    €500 for two coil springs sounds ridiculous.

    Input the car details on car-parts.ie for an idea on prices (it's a German site so delivery is €30 unless your order is above the threshold of (~€140) that qualifies for free shipping)

    they seem to be €66 each (though out of stock) on micksgarage.com. that's including the VAT.

    They seem to be out of stock everywhere but the main dealers. My friends husband is a machinic and he has tried to help but no joy. I don't know why they can't be got. I can't seem to get them anywhere

    We've looked at a few sites the problem is they don't day the colour we need. So can't be sure they are the right ones. The person who had the car before me fitted the wrong size ones and it's starting scaping off the inside of the car now making a noise. Obviously they did it because they couldn't get the part... While it's not as bad since my mechanic has looked at it it will just keep doing it and getting worse again
