(mind you the original NS link lasted 154k...!). So I found some Meyle links on e-bay for the C4 - they are listed as heavy duty, and supposedly have a 4 year warranty, and still reasonable priced, so I have given those a go. The supplier http://carpartscentreuk.co.uk/ lists the earlier type on e-bay (probably not the very early ones!), but not the later (2 x 90 joints) ones - and the on-line catalogue is next to useless unless you have the OE part number. However, dropped them a mail, and they had them in stock (£29 a pair) - ordered them early afternoon, on the 23rd, and they arrived Christmas eve in the morning! I'll update the post to let you know if they live up to the billing!
