Front discs and Pads (Celeb)

Post by Roo » Mon Mar 06, 2006 3:15 pm

I did a quick search but nothing definite came up so where is the best place to buy front discs and pads for the 480 Celeb? I need them before this weekend preferably. Value for money is a must..! ;)

buypartsby.co.uk is cheaper fo4r brake bits in general - I have split a recent order of exhaust and brake parts over eurocarparts, gsf and buypartsby. Saved about 50quid from buying it this way rather than all from one! Just brakes though buyparts are cheapest for my ES!

Cheers for the link but do you know which ones I would require for the Celebration?

I know it has solid discs but the site appears to list two different types of pad.
If only the car wasn't 225 miles away!
