The shocker from a motor factor not serious money,may be £25,suspension ball joint is part of the 'wishbone' arm,currently in the UK only available via Ford,not cheap of course,asking in  'parts wanted' for a good used one is the right move,they are about.
Just realised yours is an estate,but see Simmo's post.                                                                         GOZZ.

Have a read of This page. (http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.pl?board=admin) Check out the one re estate shock absorbers and the link in reply 19.
As Gozz says you'll need to replace the wishbone and the problems/details about that are also on the same page. ;)
