    Default Autovaux - taking the mickey?!

    They are charging £25 to deliver a set of rear pads and discs?! Yes, I live in the IV postcode but £25?! Are they big enough to fill half a pallet and weigh 500kg?! Because thats what it would cost to send that through the company I work for!!

    So a set of rear solid discs and pads from them is near £90. From my local Vxl dealer, near £90.

    Any other suggestions for original pads / discs suppliers?!

    In that case..... what price do they come in at for a 150 cdti on an 05. Solid or vented discs with appropriate pads. (Didn't realise this was an option!!)

    Can arrange a courier collection.

    Surely not? It works out around 75 quid for the discs and pads if not a little less with the buy it now or best offer option, plus a fiver delivery. Thats a tenner short of the price you were given before the 25.00 delivery?

    It also says that UK posting includes highlands and channel islands 35.00 saving and they are vented too.. its the cheapest I have found. Although if LMF can do better I am interested

    My 3.0CDTi needs discs and pads all around
    Who can quote me better than £212? That was the price from autovaux and it includes postage to Slovenia.

    Try out the ebay link.. I think international postage was 7.50 for all. That was to Germany anyway... I am unsure about Slovenia. But for my discs and pads all round it is approy 160.00
