Koni Shocks
Is it a coincidence that mini and money start with the same letter? 'cause if you have the first you sure better have lots of the other

Re: Koni Shocks
what do you mean, which ones?
if you mean gas adjustable or oil filled, go for the gas adjust, although i will warn you that Koni adjustable dampers have to be removed from the car to adjust them (well, that used to be the case anyway)
personally I'd go with either GAZ, Spax or if you have the money, Avo's, all of these are on car adjustable

Re: Koni Shocks
Use to have the Koni Classics on my Miglia, ok so they have to be removed to adjust (not a big deal, and you hardly ever change the rear setting anyway), but in the 5 seasons of racing I never had a faliure of a Koni shock, they were even sold with the car and apparently are still on it some 5 years later, compared to that of the Spax etc which are always causing problems, also way to many settings, the AVO are a good shock but have problems with the adjuster valve breaking, haven't used GAZ so can't comment. Just remember about getting the shorterend shocks if you are deciding to run the car low, otherwise I can't fault them.
