    The discs themselves?

    Vx dealer will sell a disc and pad kit for £65. The pads are the aftermarket ones, the OEM ones are much better, but even buying them additionally will cost less than just buying the discs by themselves!!

    Ask Vx for the brake and disc kit - £65 + VAT, and around £30 for the OEM pads which make a big difference. For your car, 2.0T, the OEM pads are Ferodo - so good stuff.

    My local Autoparts have just quoted me £20.00 per disc plus £15.00 for pads..i've been using them for over 10 years and never had an issue with their kit or service..shop around,unless you wana stick with Vx gen .

    But, as D said above, the Vx standard pads for the 2.0T are Ferodo - I would say that was worth the extra £15 over the Takischitt replacement ones from the factors
