For the Alhambra (admittedly a little older than your CC!) I just keep a search on Ebay with the genuine part numbers, occasionally there will be genuine parts come up from dealers clearing stock. 

Nothing wrong with keeping some items in stock!

Ive a set of the Brembo on the rear from ECP....still bedding in reallly, but no worries at present

In stock to pick up on a Sunday, which fitted my very immediate needs!

Ahh... the old rear pad wear indicator activated, did it?

Have stopped using CAF,by not taking my cars to my son's place in Staines as they rely on them heavily,most items fitted to my cars have suffered early failure which gives a clue to CAF's quality standard.Incidently they have changed hands and are now called Andrew Page Ltd.

I suspect they will go the way of Brown Bros/Unipart if they don't start competing properly with ECP.

Andrew page, do compete with ecp, on price, and supply a lot of the same parts.
It's survival of the fittest at the moment in the parts trade business, lots of smaller trades are being driven out by ecp and Andrew page.

I have found some AP bits on discount card competitive, but brakes, AC compressors etc. ECP (trade price) has been cheaper, to me anyway. Worth checking both IMO.

Very much so, the one that once you hear means disk damage imminent!

Good job the car's fitted with them, really.
