Sorry this was supposed to be in another thread.
anyway spoke to a woman over at euro car parts just for a price on front disks and pads OE. She priced them separately I did a quick sum up and it would have been close to £580 but then she said if you buy both disk and pads for the front I can do you them for £400 ??... That's almost a £200 discount.... Anyway long story short i haven't payed for them yet but I have the reference number so this deal is still available, what do you think ?

ECP normally have problems with stock levels, but its likely to be zimmerman discs and Pagid 'pin' pads which are pretty cheap anyway. Another chap bought some recently though.

This has been covered LOADS. The euro car parts pagid pads are awful.

Beware of. Euro car parts customer service,
If you get the wrong part they may not take it back.
They refuse to take back the k&n air filters bought for the c5 rs6 , which obviously are meant for something else.
If anyone knows which car 33-2886 fit, I'll de grateful as I'd like to get rid of them.

Yeah, it's difficult to get ECP to admit their errors. It's possible, but prepared to be hung up on a lot *accidentally*.

Just spoke to them again and yes they are the Zimmerman discs and pagid pads and next day delivery for £400... Do you think I could get the same quality elsewhere for cheaperNobby wrote:ECP normally have problems with stock levels, but its likely to be zimmerman discs and Pagid 'pin' pads which are pretty cheap anyway.

Could do better.
Also the Pagid pads are NOT the OE ones. They are the cheapo generic ones made from old belly button fluff.RustyBucket wrote:Just bought a front set of cross drilled Zimmermann discs for £302 at Eurocarparts using their current code of spring30
