I need to replace the front brake discs and pads on my wife's car and I'm looking to exploit the TRL knowledgebase for impartial help. I got two quotes, both are insane compared to what I thought was a fair price.

Her car is a Audi TT 3.2 v6 (the 4 wheel drive one).

For those in the know, how much would you think was reasonable for good quality discs, pads and labour?

MoT advisory note and winter conditions make it a priority ;)

Thanks for that. The price looks right then. :(

Surprisingly the Audi dealership is the cheapest of the local prices plus they throw in a good few things as well.
