Caliper cost.

johnmowcop · Feb 1, 2012

P38 N/S rear caliper on e-bay is about £38 incld. postage, I went to the local GT Autos shop, generally pretty reasonable price wise, they wanted £70 discounted to £60 plus for one. (These where also deposit required until return of old one)

Does anyone know if the ones on e-bay are ok?

They are even selling repair kits for £9.99 on e-bay, but I guess that is being a bit too tight with the pennies.

If the ebay seller looks good ie lots of good feedback, has a returns policy etc etc then it might be worth the chance. Ive had a lot of parts of ebay with no problems, However with brakes Im not sure its a risk Id like to take!
Have you tried Eurocarparts? usually a better price than GT.

I'd look at someone like Island 4x4. Good prices and a warranty.

I've got Britpart ones, from Island, on mine. The savings meant I could replace the calipers, carriers, pins, hoses and pads all in one go. My discs were in good nick so I've basically got brand new back brakes.
