Sounds like a really good option, good price, something to keep in mind for the future.

For a pair? Or each caliper?

The pair.

Brilliant! But I can't get them to answer the phone or email.

Have you filled in their template quote thingy? You'll get a quicker reply then. The guys answering the phone are wandering in and out of the workshop...keep trying!

Yes, I did the on-line quote yesterday. But now got a reply and a quote (very slightly different to yours!) so have arranged for A4 Audi to send them the calipers.

Thanks loads for the help with this - much appreciated!

strip, clean, regrease, remove corrosion, reassemble: £144
all new seals, rubbers, blead nipple etc: £39
paint (with 2 year warranty): £115
Brembo decals (high temp vinyl): £15

5 year warranty on caliper function apparently - pretty good.
Not cheap overall, but a helluva lot cheaper than 2 new calipers, and look prettier (IMHO).
Did you have to pay VAT on top of that?
