well I live in the sticks and it gets allot of back lane use, and allot of tarmac as the missis uses it for work aswell, I want to get it to a good standard more upgraded than of the shelf landy parts, like it too look family on the outside but want it too be able to do more than it says on the tin if you know what I mean
the 4 shocks on ebay are £149

Landrovers are pretty awesome on standard shocks. Munroe's or armstrong are fine. and cheap. Why blow money on "branded" products when there's no need.. I have ****part shocks on the back of the 110 and they're fine so far.

that's why im asking the question, not looking for branded names, want good strong reliable parts. Most but all the bits on my car a factory fitted, didn't realise until from prop nearly gave way, and found out it factory non maintained it had done 120,000
looking not to get ripped off just advise on what to get

OEM parts are usually more than adequate and surprisingly cheap if you stay away from LR dealerships.

I think if you just do normal LR stuff (and it sounds like you do) then you just get the OEM shocks.... LR spend years and millions sorting this stuff out for us,... much more than some of the names mentioned: ..... simples in my view.
very true
