Yes, but problem is that things conspire to wipe out savings.
 As an example....a fortnight ago I drove over a sleeping policeman (ouch) at 
about 15 mph. BOINGGG from my front suspension! 100yds down the road over the 
next sleeping policeman same sound plus clanking. By the time I negotiated the 
next FIVE so called traffic calming humps in 400yds my front suspension was 
comprehensively buggered!
Diagnosis from my local garage was a broken suspension strut on my 8yr old Saab 
with only 45,000 mls on the clock. 
Rough estimate of the cost. 1 pair of suspension struts rebuilt using my own 
sports springs, 2 front wheel bearings, and probably a pair of front 
dampers..plus labour...£1500.00 or $2250.00.

 Now for the fun bit...300 nearside struts in the UK   0 Driverside 
struts..Will have to be flown in from Sweden...STILL WAITING for delivery!
I cannot understand the logic...do they expect only nearside strut failure.
Still in discussion with Customer DIS SERVICE !!!
