Next job on the list is new discs and pads for the front and shoes for the back of my S2 (89) Anybody give me an idea roughly how much I should be paying? Don't want to get ripped off!

bought new shoes at halfords, about £8 for the lot, can track down part number tonight if you need it.
there is a link on here somewhere for a firm selling discs cheap on e-bay, search the forum under brake discs.

any motor factors should be able to sell disks for about £20, pads for about £10-£15, rear shoes for £10.00.

I wouldn't go the ebay route for brake bits unless you know exactly what you're getting...

Thanks folks. Iv'e got a list somewhere with all the commonly used part numbers on it (got it from this site a few years ago)so should be able to get what I need. Just wanted to see what everyone else is paying so I don't waste my time shopping around too much.
