£606 cheapest price for front discs currently? Mental.

Post by Mr Footlong » Mon Nov 10, 2014 1:09 pm

Hi guys

Front disc are kaput. Decided to finally bite the bullet and get new OE ones but the price is now £606 as the cheapest I have found so far? Camberley Audi made me laugh by wanting £372 per disc.

At that price I guess I should be sniffing around the AP ones again etc..... Tempted to ring my friendly TPS guy but I doubt his prices are going to be much better :(.

Oops, too late, I just bit the bullet and bought a set from my TPS guy for £618 delivered. Didn't have the time to flaff around hunting. After delivery on top of the £500 he was asking, and not knowing the seller from a hole in the wall on the forums, not the end of the world.

Yeah TPS with a 30% odd discount is normally the cheapest place nowadays, beating Stoke Audi's price.

Apparently the £372 per disc I was quoted by Camberley Audi is the RRP currently according to TPS.

I was really lucky when I replaced my fronts as I managed to get brand new/boxed OE Discs and Pads off a forum member for £700. I do understand it is always a bit of a gamble doing it like that though.

I bought Yellow stuffs all round months ago and they have been sitting on the shelf at the office waiting for the disc swap, so I will be slapping those on one time.

Hi all

Seen mention of Tarox on this thread already so thought I would remind you all that we can do these for £659.00 delivered.
They are available in a couple of surface finishes (F2000 & O.E).

We have never had a set that we have fitted in house come back with a problem.

I am also looking at the possibility of doing a group buy on these so would like to test the waters to see how many of you fine folks would be interested.

If you fancy it just drop me a pm and I will see what price I can do these for.

CheeRS all
