I am so out of touch with '8 ownership, all of them prices seem mega cheap to me.

Audi charge £1,000 for a pair of front RS 6 discs and £300 for a set of front pads - not a typo. The rear discs even from an indie such as ECP are £270 each, that's right £540 for rear non OEM discs through ECP.

I've just had new genuine OEM Audi front brakes fitted, 390mm! The rears are being done this month too, and OE brakes aren't the same as OEM even if it is the same manufacturer - experience has taught me that. RS ownership maintence/upgrades and running costs stands me at £15k on top of the purchase price currently - nothing has gone wrong really, and today I had a blow out on the way to work and have four new Michelins on order. I hope that makes you feel better.
