Its from the EU theres no customs charges. Just bare in mind Autodoc may phone you to verify your identity before dispatch and can take a couple of weeks for the parts to arrive.

Great price on the rears, they were about 90 when I ordered!

I bought the 370mm TRW discs last year and fitted myself. Spent a fair bit of time looking at prices. Found this site the cheapest.

2 discs are £164 (€190)

Loads of those sites are owned by the same company and I found the discount codes looked like they only applied to stuff that was already over priced.

Opinion on the brakes compared to stock? Did you have the blue calliper M sport brakes before hand?

Blue callipers and I found initial bite was much improved, that’s using new stock oem pads with the discs.

No difference really. I don't drive the car hard enough to notice any difference tbh. I liked the look of them just over plain discs. At times you can hear them though when driving with the windows down in summer.

There is a humming noise when braking on slotted discs. It does fade as the discs get more worn though.

They're the two piece ones as well aren't they? Good price.
I wanted to get drilled only discs like on the M cars but couldn't find anywhere that didn't two piece drilled discs for a half sensible price.
Pads wise are yellow stuff the best for fast road use?

Just an update on my order...

GLS attempted delivery yesterday but no one was in at that particular time (missed them by 20 mins, argh!!). Anyway, they didn't provide a card or anything through the letter box. No further info on tracking and no emails since. So frustrating, no UK contact number. Submitted an online form but doubt I'll get a reply.

Anyone else dealt with GLS before?

That's what I mean mate, all it says is "The package could not be delivered because the recipient was not found"... No other options to arrange re-delivery or pickup at a depot

If you look under the Sendungsinformationen tab it should give you the parcel force tracking number to put into their site:

Hey, yes got them on Monday. So that was £381.72 total, still shocked lol. Won't be getting them fitted for another couple of weeks. Will post pics once on though.

cost me £150 at the stealers to fit msport supplied discs.

I've got brembo 370 and 345 supplied discs, pads (which have a rubber like coating on the back to stop squealing) and sensors with proslip 3 pack anti-squeal grease.

feel is noticeably better, but that's old v new.

no squeal so far after 15k miles.

no rust on rims either since the inner vents and disc edge are coated.

Just did a search and yes they seem to be the same.



I believe there was a glitch in my basket with my first screenshot where it added the 24% discount and didn't total the VAT or something?

Anyway, see updated prices below with 25% off.


Were all these correct for your car? I have same brakes (blue calipers). I've been on Autodoc and the total with VAT is £414ish which seems good but I need to make sure they're the correct ones.
