Budget Bob needs brake discs

Time to spend some money .. Front brake discs & pads required.
E92 56 335d
£404 for BMW parts supply only... is there an alternative ??

Not bothered about any fancy looking stuff .. function over form is my preference

Just good quality OEM looking ones will be fine

thanks

Two good options for you:

mister-auto.co.uk - ATE disc and pads for just over £150
carparts4less.co.uk - Pagid discs and Textar pads for about £180+

I've used both and carparts4less are a part of EuroCarParts and Mister-Auto are based in France but I've found their prices to be excellent on the majority of parts

yep... pagid / textar are the way to go.. had them on my 530D (and it was a huge barge of a thing to slow down) and my 330i, and in both instances they were superb and identical to OEM performance.

Try Eurocarparts and use the discount code. Probably save yourself a fortune.

I cannot remember buddy, it changes month by month. A quick google search should find it though.

Yep, +1!

Oilspill30 is the code I used, all my discs and pads and sensors from Euro Car Parts. They work a treat! Although their Customer service is so pooh!

i usually get mine through euro car parts, but just get my mate's garage to order and fit them. he gets the parts even cheaper. I think typically it costs me about £200 all in for discs and pads fitted.

It really is. You can read up all you want about how to please a woman, you can look at all the diagrams in the world, but just like the clitoris, you won't know what the hell an apex is before you actually find it.
