actually that is £672 and the postage is Euro39, the pads take it well over £900

As for bhv-handel.de they sell calipers and pads for Euro 1140 (£910 before you take into consideration the shipping)

I am aiming at £800+ not £900+

I disagree. Call it £700 delivered and then a set of Red Stuff Pads from Europerformance for £145 delivered. Your still under the £850 mark.

I think its a great idea but you would need to be offering a significant discount over the already available deals to get people interested in this.

I would suggest you need to be getting below £700 all in to excite enough people in this limited market and make this work.

I bought mine on ebay for significantly less than that! I think they worked out at about £380 delivered.

BARGAIN!!!!

sounds tempting.... just have to wait until the discs and pads need changing before I commit to a brake upgrade.
Will bear you in mind,

cheers

Argh... a little too early for me. Only collected the car on Thursday... brake upgrade is on my hit list but I'm fresh out of brownie points at the moment.
