Shock life, sport vs regular

What's a typical expected life for shocks under "normal" drving conditions (mostly high way)? My -94 CSE has 100kmiles and the front seems to nod more than once, especially if hit by a bump while cornering. Not sloppy but note quite as tight I'd like it to be.
Some people posted about Bilstein dampers being good.... were they the regular or the sport type? The sport front is V36-4034 (379 euros each), sport rear B36-1785 (105 euro each). The regulars are front VNE 4579 (136 euro each) and rear BNE 2938 (100 euro each). So there's a substantial difference in the total cost sport vs regular. The same applies for Konis. Is the original SAAB shocks made by Sachs?
Any insight would be appreciated, since I'll be in market for new shocks fairly soon.
Thanks, Tapani
