Are these cheap and will they fit a 2.5v6 1995 saloon? I live in Dundee so no travel cost either. :y

They look about right - as long as yours has solid rears, mine are vented (2001 2.6).

Lucas stuff is pretty good quality I've found in the past & that's a good price for all 4!  :y

Cheers,
John

I got a set of Mintex front and rear discs, pads and rear shoes of Ebay for £55 delivered from a bloke that sells regularly.

I've had problems with pattern discs, though mine were some no brand 'made in italy' stuff...

That is a very good price. I would get them. :)

Just remember, new discs = new pads too.

Looks like a bargain to me, I paid 90 bucks for a set previously, they then warped and had to change them, they're sitting rusting in the garden now ;D...Oh and by the way I might be up in Dundee in March for a long weekend if you fancy meeting up, let me know.

FULL SET OF LUCAS BRAKE DISKS FOR OMEGA, TWO VENTED AND TWO SOLID,NEVER USED,...

Q: will these fit an omega 2.5 litre estate
A: I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT CARS,ALL I CAN SAY IS THEY WERE FOR AN N REG OMEGA 3,0 ELITE...
----------------------------------------------


 Apparently is should read ‘previously fitted but never used”…

Well if they have actually been on the car then in my book they should be advertised as ‘nearly new’ or ‘as new’ but not ‘new unused’…

Still, if they have indeed never been driven on then at £25 for all four they are a bargain.

As for quality, I used to do some work for a couple of Lucas Automotive factories (though not brake parts) and generally speaking Lucas quality is top notch.

Incidentally, don’t the rear ones have a mini-drum built-in for the handbrake?
