After 4 visits to Bruntingthorpe the front steel discs have had it. Any suggestions on best source for replacements

very easy job to fit yourself. Make sure that you replace the 'stretch' caliper bolts - as far as i know only avail from OPC (expensive)

Are you mad? biggrin

I've no idea, but I would think closer to the £200 per corner mark.

That's the fitted price wink

Seriously I ordered 2 fronts, 2 rears for my C4S from Carnewal (www.carnewal.com) in Belgium and it was £60 cheaper than any of the UK operations, this was for Genuine Porsche parts not equivalent. The bizarre thing was the shipping was cheaper too.

Drop Gert an e-mail as the items aren't on his website.
