My 2019 Vantage needs its pads doing (front). Standard steel brakes.

The obvious solution is to give it the dealers which is probably what I will end up doing.

But as with the other cars Ive owned over the years, I wonder if there are any decent aftermarket options both in terms of quality/performance and cost.

Id be grateful for your input.

Thanks for your reply. Ive not heard if Porterfield before - a quick google seems to show a number of mixed reviews on various cars.

I note that EuroCarParts sell Pagid pads - does anyone have any experience of these ?

Any feedback would be most appreciated

If the sensor has not been activated they can usually be carefully removed and used again.
Autodoc list them as do Aston Bits and I am sure a main dealer will have them, prices seem to be roughly the same wherever obtained.
Certainly the most expensive sensors Ive ever purchased....£178 inc vat for fr and rear from David Appleby Engineering, same price/item from all sellers from what I can see
