As earlier. rolleyes While trying to understand your youthful exuberance, you're attempts at humour are as weak as your knowledge. Are we going to hear how much you're 'optional' avus suspension contributed as well? laugh On your way Stirling, sit by the phone incase Ron Dennis calls.

Oh dear, you really are a little keyboard warrior. The way in which you construct posts is as poor as the construction of your debate/argument. I do note the change in my user name in the above quote, too bad I didn't actually write it! Who's the butt of the joke now?

Here's a tip for you - When debating a subject it is key to bring experience and knowledge into the arena. If you were to read back through the thread then you will see that you have supplied neither. Instead, you've been intent on trying to ridicule and belittle what I have said with absolutely no reasoning supporting your statement.

Thus far all you have managed to achieve is to construe yourself as a plonker and please...for the love of God...refresh your mind on the correct uses for the words: your, you're and you are. Until you have mastered something as simple as that, then I shall hold no hope in you understanding the finite details of chassis dynamics.

Try a few different ones too, prices vary and on a product of this value it is well worth your time!

When i bought the kit is was £1150 inc vat retail price, so if they are charging you more than that they are either including fitting or the prices have gone up...

absolutely not...... just include vat... without fitting... and it is a little impossible for the price goes up... because one of my

friend tole me that bwm has some promotions on that product... so genernally the price should be decreased....

anyhow... almost give up for changing that brake kit...

Your local BMW dealer clearly don't have clue then.

2 front six pot calipers
2 rear two pot calipers
2 front discs, vented/drilled/grooved
2 rear discs (solid i think, i can't remember)
2 brake back plates (for the front)
full set of front pads + one wear indicator
full set of rear pads + one wear indicator

all this applies to the 130i and 123d, the kits are slightly different for other models.
