Title: Genuine Vauxhall Omega Front Brake Kit On Ebay £50
Post by: Jim on 10 June 2008, 16:52:50
Just got a set of Genuine GM Vauxhall Omega front brakes including pads for £50.00, I collect the parts from the guy but postage would have only been £12.50 extra so in total; £62.50 thats still about 20% cheaper than Trade club price and approx 40-50% than normal retail, check out the link below.

Would rather see the box that the parts came out of.

Not saying they are not genuine but would prefer confirmation.

Just a thought, when I priced up disks for my V6 he asked which engine at the parts shop.

He mentioned something about the 3.0 disk being a tad bigger than the 2.5

Can anyone confirm.
