Well, after much pondering I've decided to remove these from the beast.
They are made by PB Brakes and have many superb reviews and brand new cost in excess of £3k.
Specs are:
8 pot fronts with 405mm floating discs
6 pot rears with 380mm floating discs
Braided hoses all round
New front pads (boxed)
New rear pads (boxed)
Complete new seal kit for all 4 calipers.
You do need a minimum 20" alloy to clear the fronts (they really are that big).
They do need rebuilding hence the inclusion of a complete new seal kit for all calipers.
Discs are still ok but one rear does have some scoring where the one caliper stuck (hence the need to rebuild them now). This will generally be ok once new pads are added OR you could skim the disc if required.
I have the rear E70/71 brackets (hence they are compatible with the E7* fitment).
Rears have been removed already and just got to remove fronts.
Can email/whatsapp pics as photobucket has now gone caput.
I'm after £1200 which is a bargain when you consider the new pads and seal kit cost £400.
Thanks,
Raj

Hi Raj
Hope you are okay and sorry to hear about the removal of your brakes it it could mean I could gain or have a deal with you.
However, as I sold the E53 would you be interested in a part-ex with the Coilovers you sold me a while back?

Easy Graeme.
Yeah all good here really. Just crazy busy with the house and work tbh.
Tbf buddy I don't really need the coilovers and I'm just looking to sell the brakes themselves at the moment. I might be demodding a few other bits from her too but will see.
Let me know if interested though.
Thanks,
Raj
