Where do people go to buy standard road pads? I'm looking for front pads for a late 90s K-series car on standard brakes.

Caterham have standard pads listed for about £55.

Euro Car Parts have some Pagid pads for under £40 (although the image of the pad on the website is not identical to the ones on the Caterham website - ?)

Thanks

Figure out what fits and buy from a regular motor parts store.

I believe the caterham pads are actually by delphi.. from what I remember the rears are a ?507lp? I have ds2500's in mine, and according to the order they fit a Ford Granada 2.9 Cosworth 1996! (mine is a 2006 k series).

Getting the numbers off the existing pads (or the pics on caterham's website), and then some work with google would be my solution.. Alternatively redline components. http://www.redlinecomponents.co.uk/
