Got mine from fleabay ( 300270327245 ) 4 discs, F + R pads, H/brake shoes + fitting kit £137 delivered.
(assuming they try the right house on taoday's attempt).
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)

Are these brake discs fancy ones (I mean grooved, or vented, or drilled/dimpled, or any combination of the three)?

Or are they simple OEM replacements?

I was thinking about treating the Coupe to some shiny new uprated brakes a bit later in the year (when my wallet has had a chance to recover from the cambelt)

2008 (E60 LCI) BMW 525i M-Sport, 3.0 litre Petrol. Carbonschwarz Metallic. Black Dakota Leather and Myrtlewood interior.
