Failed MOT

Had the zed MOTd today after 2 years off the road and was advised it needs new discs and pads all round, 2 front tyres but the back are right on the limit and a pair of rear droplinks. I've been looking at getting the Powertrix droplinks from DTA so I think I've made the decision with them and I'm going to try and get some part-worns for the tyres - I'm just after recommendations for discs and pads all round. What do you think? Are the powertrix droplinks well recommended?

 

Cheers,

James

    Cheers mate. Sorted out some nearly new checked part worn tyres at £30 a corner and a pair of powertrix rear drop links i think is around £30? I just need to find some affordable brakes now. :headvswal

    After finding out I was wayyy wrong about the price of powertrix drop links (they're actually £112!!!!) I've seen these on the Zcentre website: http://www.zcentre.co.uk/shop/product_info.php?cPath=21_28_59&products_id=316 Are they what I need? The title sounds right but the picture looks wrong lol. If not - does anyone by any chance have any good used drop links? Same for brake discs all round? The reason I'm trying to save money at the moment is because the car hasn't been used for a while and I'm convinced then when I start driving it I'm going to find other things wrong with it so I just want to get it to pass it's MOT as cheap as possible for now so I can use it for a bit and find out if the car is still OK. I intend to upgrade everything at a later date anyway :)

     

    Hope someone can help!

    Cheers,

    I'd say that was a result after 2 years of not being driven!

     

    Agreed - which I was why I don't wanna chuck money at it upgrading brakes etc while times are hard and I'm convinced that some other bits will go wrong when it starts being used again ;)
