How'd you manage that? As I presume (hope) that's not new prices.
Yup thats new prices with staff discount at euro car parts, then fitted them myself.
I'll admit they arent the best make as they are the euro car parts own brand, but they work

Haha. Way to make yourself sound like a total p***k. Yeah i have a 206 in my collection, but before insulting me it would have been wise to ask why the pads are £120 a set. Then you wouldn't look so stupid.
