Anyone used 123spareparts.co.uk?

Post by Shoppinit » Wed May 29, 2013 12:56 pm

Just came across these.

Zimmy Brake disks seem like a good price:

Bit curious that I've never come across them before though.

Anyone used them?

Looks like they have front pads for my C6 for £247 vs Audi at £365. Except the part number on 123spares has a P at the end and the Audi one an E, anyone know what the difference is? I know X at the end of an Audi part number means the part is reconditioned, for example.

Current part number for C6 ramic pads.

But beware, if u fit anything non OEM, you will void ur warranty, and u dont want to be out of pocket for ruining ur 420's ;)

I take it I'd need the expensive ones out of the two prices for the front discs?

And pads as well,

That's really cheap!

I'm about to, but I don't want to order the wrong discs.

It's got to be worth a try!
