Someone (I forget whom) had some Monroe shocks fitted and really liked them, and gave feedback on this some time ago. (I'm sure they said the car was for road-going use mostly)

IF IT AINT BROKE, KEEP FIXING IT UNTIL IT IS

I fitted Monroe shocks. They were the cheapest available at the time. No complaints, no surprises, rides pretty nicely, works just fine on and off-road. I can't compare to anything because the standard shocks were knackered when I took them off.

Thanks Busta, that's good to know.
I guess then they are a good alternative to OEM shocks. I believe my current shocks are still in good order, maybe getting a little tired, but when the vehicle is loaded and towing you can then start to feel they are past their performance limit.
So Munroe sound perfect for standard daily use, but I think I need to try something with potentially more to offer when towing.
As you say hard to compare. Pity you can try before you buy!
