Thos brake pads are scandelous (He says as a BMW owner ) My 30 tonne Scania truck has 18" Diameter disk breaks all round, 50 mm thick, Last week I bought 2 disk @ £90 each + VAT and a set of pads for a whole axle, so a set of 4 pads for £75+VAT admittedly they were on special, but thats only 20 quid cheaper than normal and all prices were from Scania themselves ?

So that shows you how much you can get for your money

Hmm, without wanting to hijack the thread, thats surely gotta be worth a few pictures.....(ok, i dont get out much)

That is a ridiculous amount for 1 wiper blade though, just think, buy 250 sets and for the same money you could buy the whole car...brand new

Don't ask how much a flasher unit is for a 7 series, it's built into the dash electrics.

Thanks BM, i have to admit to having an unhealthy fetish for all things HGV or plant-ish, (and if we're comming completely out of the closet, ...classic tractors too! ) hence the reason for wanting to see the truck...nice.

As for the ruggers, well i live full time in France and am married to a French woman who is still not letting me live the weekend down....All i can say is "come on Wales "
