Not sure the best place to post this.....
« on: November 15, 2011, 08:48:31 pm »
I have the opportunity to get a complete S3 brake set up, but I don't want the rears.  Can anyone give me an idea on a realistic price for the rears to sell on and recover some of the cost?

Brakes come off a 2010 S3 8P which has covered 16k, included are calipers, carriers, discs, pads and hoses.

Cheers, Lee.

So calipers, carriers, discs and pads......£250 sound reasonable?

That's what I just paid + postage

I have nearly new j hooked discs and pads for that price so perhaps 250 delivered?

Sssshhhhhh!  :ashamed:

 :innocent: :signLOL:

Just waiting to here back on condition etc, had some interest in the rears to make the whole purchase viable, so fingers crossed.

Car goes in for MOT this month and is due a service in mid December, but I may bring that forward and have both done.  DP will go on then so I will coming to see you in the new year..............or sooner!   :evilgrin:

Get the DP on sooner and join the kent convoy up to the shark RR day at the end of the month  :happy2:

Rear brakes price seems fine, if I hadn't just purchased a twintercooler, I'd be crying out for them  :wink:
