quoted hundreds to replace front pads that ' won't make it to next service' on a 62 plate hse lux.
Any good well rated pads that won't be a false economy but are a worthwhile saving over the genuine LR ones?

check one of the site sponsors. I chose http://www.advancedfactors.co.uk/, very helpful guys. Whatsmore the pads were a breeze to replace. Recently bought a 2007 RRS HSE TDV6 for a Pimp-My-Ride-Project.
DONE: Meduza front bumper, AB rear bumper, AB tailpipes, calipers repainted, rear upper tailgate upgrade, side steps, AB front grille, AB side vents, rear LED lights, clear side repeaters, integrated daytime running lights, LED headlights.
TO DO: color code sills and pillars.

Going to assume you have the Brembo type calipers. Current LR retail price on brake pads is £223 + VAT

Can be had for £60-£70 for aftermarket pads

URX, It would be helpful if you filled in your vehicle spec on your profile.

Had a look and right enough I hadn't selected the hse lux version...
It's the genuine ripoff price that rather made me wince.
I don't mind buying genuine gear where it's better than pattern stuff but ,...
How can it be four times better than em standard ferodo or similar?....

Much better going for the EBC Redstuff pads, which I believe are available for the 6 pot calipers

Had a look and perhaps it's just cos I've been awake since 4am yesterday but
TRW stuff no problem and even brembo discs...but no brembo front pads

My local motor factors got me pattern pads for the brembos for around £70 two years ago, they have been great, no brake fade from 80 to 20 on the motorway tonight coming home thank god  07,TDV8,Black, Black Heated leather all round, Rear Entertainment with Headpones & Remote, TV, DVD, Pure Dab Digital Radio, Sidesteps, Adaptive Headlights, sunroof, now working fuel burning heater )))

I do believe these are the pads you need http://www.advancedfactors.co.uk/bp-gdb183...2103-p.asp

If in doubt, call up with yiur the no, and Steve will advise
