Re: Front brake discs and pads
Thanks for another top tip Ken.
I rang my local factors, and they were looking £29 a disc!

Re: Front brake discs and pads
Many thanks also for the tip off Ken. Although all the discs were sold, I found a further listing for Brembo discs at £25 inc. postage!! There is another pair from the original dealer listed around £28 inc. With regards, Matthew T.

Re: Front brake discs and pads
I see the same seller also has Peugeot 605 discs and pads at the same price (£21.95). The 283 mm diameter discs are the same as the XM ones and the pads are the same size (I think) but without the two piston locating 'pips' on the backplates.
