    Don't know what other renault you own, must be a bigger car but the Bendix discs for the wife 1.4 clio were under £30pr inc vat from the local motor factors.

    Cannot understand your descision to go original equip, they will certainly be made by bendix or similar, not renault/vw/ford etc:money::money:

    Think harder and save even more;);)
    I like the thanks button, but ,please, an I agree button.

    Will the grammar and spelling police respect I do make grammatical errors, and have carp spelling, no need to remind me.;)

    Always expect the unexpected:eek:and then you won't be dissapointed
  • i agree, i prefer the genuine product though i have purchased cheaper discs quite a while back but ended up replacing them within 12 months due to brake judder, so really its just personal preference, my wife has a 172 clio sport, and i have a megane 1.9 diesel as we both do a lot of travelling i think its best to go genuine, just my opinion

    If they're Renault, they sell some interesting stuff
    280469438543 if you have a bit of touching up to do.

    Or to scrape your chin of the deck when you've heard the price of the brake discs;)

    I bought front discs and pads for my Renault Sport clio 197 and they cost me £80 at my local motor factors. That was Brembo discs and pads too

    Sorry mate but it aint much of a bargain
    If Adam and Eve were created first
    .Does that mean we are all inbred

    "Genuine" stuff from E-Bay? isnt that a contradiction in terms?

    Genuine in Ebays rules... A part rebranded from a chinese supplier providing the price is increased accordingly.

    Or did i make that up?

    Waiting for my chinese order now, Still not sure how they manage to sell and post an item to the UK for under £5 when
    the same product in the UK sells for £50 - £80.
