Where can I get new AP 330mm Discs! CHEAP!!
Just bought a set of 2nd Hand AP 6Pots. Discs looked ok on the donor car till they were removed to find a large amount of corrosion on the inside of the discs up to the fixing bolts on the bells. Anyone know who's cheapest to get a replacement set of discs from?? Been quoted £400 inc vat is this about right?

Does it matter if there's corrosion on the inside? It's only the braking surface that matters surely? All iron discs corrode on their unswept faces. On another note, I can't believe a set of rotors is £400 worth. Maybe they're made of kryptonite or something...

They arent cheap thats for sure, but you pay for quality.
They dont look too bad, they are rusty, because they have probably been stood, and thats where the pads dont clean the surface.

Godspeed have been the cheapest so far chaps. Another guy from my Scooby Club got quoted £400 but this needs confirming. Should anyone want to do a deal for 2 sets then let me know before i purchase them maybee we could get a little more discount!
The corrosion is severe on the rear, its heavily pitted up to the bells and on the discs and will damage the pads no doubt now ive removed chunks of rust which is not a comforting thought with plus 370HP to stop. They looked good on the donor car, but as always looks can be deceiving!!
The best price so far for the DS2500 Pads is £186+Vat !! Shocking!!! I know, still looking for a better price on these!
