And you can by HEL braided brake hoses for all 4 corners for £80, fitting won't be a lot.
And 4 Eagle F1 tryes are £480 delivered, plus fitting.

Those brake prices are laughable,£1200 for discs! I paid half that for same genuine items! If the car had new brakes fitted he would want more ££ so expecting to deduct full price of discs n pads is unrealistic but you could try! £400+ for pads someone pulling your pisser mate.doddle of a job no different to any other car and certainly doesn't warrant Audi stupid labour rates.

Tell me about it. The price was from Audi dealer health check. I have the copy. Prices inc VAT. I take it the health check prices are fitted prices.

I have a Audi mechanic near me who provides stamps with his work carried out. Very reputable over here. He is the guy I would get to do my work.

Like buying any car there is no point giving full value for a car that needs money added to it to make it right and I wouldnt expect to take off every penny that Audi states.

Hopefully I can upload it to the forum someday. I assure it will be well cared for.

Easy to fit (you'll lose all mfsw options of course) - needs coding but very straightforward.

Biggest issue will be finding a wheel.

Bought !!!

Ordered Goodyear eagle F1's and 8mm spacers all around for next week. Full wheel alignment also. Then that should be her for a while.

Will get rear brakes hoses in a couple of months ready for next MOT.

Looking forward to getting her home and giving it a real good clean.

Discs are due in 8k so a bit of play yet, I originally thought they were due immediately but that is just the rear hoses.

Didnt go over £19k..... bargain me thinks. :beerchug:
