Hi guys,
I'm about to replace my discs and pads all round, After lots of research I have decided to get the discs from Stoke Audi, (been quoted £624 front inc Vat, Rear £660 inc Vat, Have spotted front premier pads on ebay for £85 (FDB 4165) but it doesn't say if it includes 4 or 8 in the box, Have emailed the seller 2 days ago but not heard back yet, Anyone know a cheaper place to get either discs or pads from? Problem is a lot of online company's don't specify if your getting 4 or 8 front pads in the box.
Many thanks in advance.

For £85 you should get a full set (of
pads. For normal road use those pads are a good option but repeated spirited driving will see the holes clog and judder set in if you don't take it easy. I've used the pads myself - they're quite soft. Lots of feel though

Thanks guys, The plot thickens, The guy from ebay has got back saying it is £85 for a pack of 4 only.. Also the kimbercarparts website has them up for around £141 for 8 ??
Either they have gone up drastically in price or i'm being a numpty.

Definitely paid £86.43 for mine including next day delivery, invoice dated 09/07/14.
Brake pad set £80.48
UK next day delivery £5.95.
Just had a look on their website, they have seriously gone up in price looking at them

states on the listing:
"Each set of Ferodo Brake Pads is supplied to fit one complete axle, i.e. if you order Front Brake Pads you will receive all the parts necessary to replace all the pads on both driver and passenger side."
So maybe worth a punt with them.

Those were some cheap pads! I got Yellowstuff for £220 here in sweden.
Also £624 for front discs sounds amazing. Do they ship to sweden aswell? The car goes into service in a month and need to get the discs before that.
The cheapest discs available in sweden is the brembo ones and is about £800!!
