Finally managed to get the brake pads replaced with the Greenstuff from EBC! the people @ www.autocraze.co.uk were ever so helpful, they ordered 2 sets of pads as they were not sure which ones would fit (as apparently mine are those of a 307). They got the unused set back with no problem! My set were only Â£40! They even directed me to a local mechanic who fit them for Â£25!
When they took the old ones out... they were even CRACKED! After not even a year of life (of the whole car)
Peugeot wouldn't replace them under warranty (the B#@&%$Â£S) and wanted to charge me for Â£94 with new brake pads (probably of the same crap quality of the old ones!)
Savings Â£29 + better quality brake pads....
