Brake disc source - for reasonable price ?

Post by WesleyPegden » Fri Oct 21, 2016 3:14 pm

I've got a Marlin Roadster based on a 1974 TC and will need new brake discs during a full, bare chassis upwards, rebuild.
Brembo no longer make them so best price I can find is those on eBay at around £80 delivered which are rather expensive seeing they were previously listed at under £32 a pair delivered.
Anyone know of a dealer who still has stock and sells at reasonable price ?

Cheers.

ESM have them a bit cheaper: http://www.morrisminorspares.com/brakes ... ch-p829469

Might be worth looking round a few other Minor sites as plenty of Minors are running round with Marina discs on them so the demand for them is there. Surprising to see Brembo ones have disappeared, I remember buying a pair a few years ago for about £40.

Well ap brake discs were a bust. Despite listing them on their website they didn't have them in stock.

He went away to order me a pair and came back with the news they couldn't get them anymore

Ordered some from earlpart at 60 per disc plus carriage
