I used this place when getting pads for my tip top - I bought ECB pads from them and they were quite a bit cheaper than ecb direct.

What sort of Discs do you want?
I can get discs and pads at a cheep rate.

Price's for the saxo range from
£6 to £15 each + postage for discs only

Model, year, size and how many bolt wheel fixing and we should be able to get the right one's

I can check on pads when I Know a bit more.

The guy who is building a diesel (!) Westie in PPC recommended www.biggred.co.uk for brake parts. Look quite good but don't know about prices.
Cheers, Pewe

For those who need a bit more info, it's a 1.1 02 plate saxo desire, with 4 bolt fixing. Most places only showed the one disc for this car. I'll have a look round the websites and see what I can come up with.

Normally, I'd agree, but she drives it like a crazy woman, so I'd rather she had some better brakes.

Many thanks that man! I'll let her know, as I think her old man wanted me to do something else to it at the same time, but can't remember what. I'll let you know when I need them!
