180 Brake Costs

Found some Mintex Discs and pads front and rear for £100 is this a good price. If not can someone point me in the right direction

Mr ZS180 is on a distinguished road
Mintex are a big name in the brake industry, been around pretty much for ever, and their pads range from OE replacements to track. For that price you can't go wrong!!!!

KirkJames will become famous soon enough
Whereabouts was that from? I bought some advertised at about that price which were listed for the 180, turned out to be for the 4 pots!!
Double check the disc size it should be 282mm on the fronts, I would bet my left nut they have listed it wrong, it's unfortunately quite common for companies (especially on ebay) to list them wrong.
If they are the right size then that's a good deal as the cheapest I could find the correct size mintex for was £139
Check these out mate, there are others but these are the correct sizes etc:

Good price, now add some inflation on to that and you won't be far off £139. Unless you get them from a private sale I seriously doubt you could get them for that now, unfortunately!

Your right, double checked the size and it is the wrong one's. But £139 is still a brilliant price in my eyes
