Default london - mongolia charity rally

on july 5 me and my mate jon are driving to mongolia, this is our website about it.

the reason for this post is that we need 2 rear shocks for a skoda favorit, at the end of the rally the car is donated to raise money for mongolian charities.

So, does anyone have a pair of rear shocks they would like to donate, we also need a few other spares, but i cant think what they are at this present time.

Your help will be greatly appreicated

Good luck.

Sponsored someone on the rally a few years back. They made it as far as dover. The route and blog posts prove its an event for nutters and the brave.

Felicia shock absorbers should fit too if that helps.

Thankyou ANEWMAN for that advice and to all our well wishers.

RE: Rear shock absorbers, we still require 2 Rear shocks for our Favorit, we are willing to buy them at a reasonable cost, we do not care if they are for a Foreman, Felicia or Favorit, or if they are a bit bouncy.

Since the car will be carrying a lot of weight (5 spare wheels plus other kit) over rough dirt roads any advice concerning suitable and easy modifications would be appreciated. Also advice on the cars ability to cope with low octane fuel would be useful.

Just found this one for £20.99 delivered. SKODA FELICIA REAR SHOCK ABSORBER on eBay, also, Skoda, Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 24-Jun-08 12:56:18 BST) Edit: sorry that's no good at all as you need two...

If you haven't already, try post a request on www.skoda-forum.com too.

I assume you're based somewhere near London?
