A minor upgrade if in perfect condition.
Two services in eight years is a quarter of what they should have had so they might not work as well as they should and could have worn stanchions, bushes, seals and damper.
Stick with the Toras or find something better.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350 -
I've seen much newer floats going for circa £100 on ebay. I would shop around0

OK thanks for the advice. I think I'll wait it out and see if I can find a better option0

Better but will your frame take a 140mm fork?
They have got quite a short steerer as well.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350 -

What are peoples views on 2008 marzocchi bombers?

Possibly the most unreliable fork ever made!
Avoid 2008 Marzocchis, they had MAJOR issues. They are virtually guaranteed to puke oil everywhere.
For £150-£200 you could get some really good Rockshox Rebas.Transition Patrol - viewtopic.php?f=10017&t=130702350
