alfa gt brakes

[highlander]

as my daily I have an alfa gt smoker. as a daily it is excellent and have just put it through the mot clean & free for the 5th year in a row but have some advisories and with the timing service due this week on the 3200 the warchest is running really low to even consider alfa doing the work unfortunately.
I'm needing 4 discs & pads and since clutch is starting to slip (has done 86k, so can't complain) also needing a clutch kit.
ideas on prices or where to buy appreciated.

Result! They seem to have deals on every now and again, and rotate which models, so your timing was perfect.

I know. 239 good block price for 4x discs, 4xpads and clutch kit..........now if only the fitting work would cost the same

Alternative Autos, just did discs and pads on my GT JTD (Mintex) and it was £150 delivered. Clutch, it's the dual mass flywheel that might be shot and they ain't cheap!

ECP clutch for £77 is fantastic just make sure you replace the clutch arm upper and lower bushes, they are cheap and make a massive difference to the lightness and smoothness of its operation.
