Default Seeking Brembo front discs - any clues??

Hi guys

I'm trying to get my hands on some new front discs for the S8. Specifically Brembo 345mm discs. No one seems to stock them at the moment (usual websites) and I'm desperately trying to avoid the stealers. A few options on eBay but only single discs and potentially dubious quality/authenticity.

Does anyone have a secret stash???

Thanks

mossy

Richard - do try the stealers for a price at least. They weren't too bad for the pads - I bought them from Audi Northampton.

BTW - get that photo swapped - you have it 9 months and it's still parked outside my house!

Retail from TPS is £135.12 each for the discs and £203 for the pads.

+1 although I think stocks can be a bit variable.....

I usually get a healthy discount from TPS - worth popping in with the S8 in tow - they don't see them often and if they're enthusiasts they'll often try and look after you
