£92 a pair at my suppliers.(Mintex)

Make sure the ones you got have the magnets on the back for the ABS, some don't have them!!

Never needed a puller to take the discs off, they just slide off.

Take a hammer to the edge of the disc and gently tap the disc....the rust should fall off, if it doesn't check the sliding pins and the pads for sticking.
