Mot Fail And Compare Parts Prices

[thatfatbloke]

'The Shed' failed on both front brake hoses and a binding brake (probably a sticking caliper). Here are the prices quoted for the hoses and new brake pads all round as they are low.

Lexus - £191

An internet brake specialist - £125

Euro Car Parts - £99

ECP parts are 'Pagid',Lexus are Lexus (supposedly) and the other one a mixture of Ferodo and something else. Pagid sounds good to me!.

Looks reasonable to me,Blueprint hoses are around £22.00 each on amazon for some reason there are no stainless steel braided hoses showing for the 95-97 LS400.

Mine's also in for the MOT in the morning.

I recently bought some bits from ECP, it was a few quid cheaper online, and delivered next day, than over the counter.

Seems daft to me, but there you go.
