Anyone know the above firm? I've bought front and rear brake pads from them off ebay and had 2 sets of rears delivered in error, can't now seem to raise any response (I've only got an email address) Anyone here use them and have good/bad experience (their feedback is v.good) A contact no. would be great.
Thanks

Yes, appreciate what your saying but they're genuine Ferodo pads and the ebay shop looks like a dealer or possible an independant, have a look

They look ok, I'm prob being a bit over cautious when looking at brake pads as that's all that is stopping almost 3 tonnes moving at speed. I tend to help our local stealer feather his nest as changing pads is a bit past my DIY skills.

Willmyth,
Isn't that a mobile number? I suppose if they are only doing business online thats the only number they need. However I'd be reluctant as I remember reading an article about counterfeit brake pads a few months back...... No comeback in the event of a failure.

I got a set of leather seats for my TD5 disco almost 2 years ago from these guys. If I remember correctly, the guys name is Martin, and seemed sound when I met him then. They're based in Sutton Coldfield I think. Might still have their address if you want it.IE - 05 D3 TDV6 HSE - Zambezi Silver
