RRP £1900 !!!!! What a total ripoff , must be all of £50 worth of raw material at most ! Lol we should all post a picture of what you can buy with £1900

That's cheap compared to what I paid for mine

That's why I thought I'd post this link....I'm going to need new disks in a month or two and I haven't seen any cheaper. Having said that, the Pagid single piece disks are only £40 each, so you'd get through 15 sets for this pile of cash. How 'bad' can they be....?

I was speaking to one of the guys in parts last time I was in and he said they are bringing the price down on some parts.

Even though mine are newish I considered buying new ones lol

Are you sure the Pagid are for the Front?

When I changed mine all round the rears were avail in copy parts but the fronts were oem only.

the only other option for the fronts was to order them from the US from a company called racing brake.

I just went the oem route.

double and triple check that the fronts are avail yourself. If they are I highly doubt they are £40.

I've just checked ecp and the pagid are rear discs only at £40. Fronts look like its still oem only.

My SL55 is due to have new discs/pads at the next service and my indie contacted me to let me know that the quote they'd given had dropped by £500 because the price of the front discs had changed. I considered a £500 saving was worth having and paid up-front for the parts in case the prices rose again. The ebay price you've shown is £285 cheaper than the price I considered a bargain and if I hadn't already secured a set, I'd be on ebay right now.

On the plus side, this being the EU, you can order the parts from Germany?

I'm in Frnkfurt next week, so will be collecting them in person... I've also asked them for fitting cost, so we'll see what the labour rates are like too!
