Gaz6002 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 (edited) What did you pay for them ? £333 for all four discs including delivery, still in Toyota boxes. (edited, got the price wrong) I got a special deal on the pads and lines, because I wanted something quite specific.

Gaz6002 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Think you've been robbed mate, which dealer did you get those off, i can buy all four for £252.46 I got it wrong, I paid £330 including VAT and delivery Well why didn't you reply to my wanted thread then? I needed them quickly, and I thought it was a good deal compared to how much my friend paid for his RX7 ones. A lot cheaper than Whifbitz's site, too.

I didn't see your wanted ad:search: or i would have given you a heads up £330's better but still £50 too much even if you allowed £30 postage.

Kirk Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) Think you've been robbed mate, which dealer did you get those off, i can buy all four for £252.46 You must be getting stupid discount as my dealer does a full set of UK discs for £293 all in with 20% discount to me and steve manley couldnt better that so id love to know how your managing getting discs at £252 without more discount or twisting of the VAT.

SPG Posted August 6, 2010 Author Share Posted August 6, 2010 (edited) Well after speaking to Chris Wilson this morning I can confirm that he is a legend. £165.50 VAT included for a set of CW front and rear Fast Road pads for Uk-spec . I am not really a track person so these should be more than good enough for their intended use (fast road) and when comparing to a quote for Porterfields fast road pads at £148.89 for the front pads only then their is quite a massive saving. I love this forum Edited August 6, 2010 by SPG (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
