Kudos for using the search function, but instead of "piggy-backing" the same question in multiple threads, some dormant for over 5 years and some discussing other JCW parts, it's best to start your own thread.

Now you only have to track one thread for answers to your question

Putting quality JCW bits on flea bay like that is pretty much like leaving a juicy steak in a lion pen.

Saying that bargains can be had, because you can always try to snipe them at the last minute. The going price seems to be around the £200-300 mark for the last few sets, although those didn't have the rear calipers with them.

You're also going to need to get discs for them, so that's £140ish added to the bill and then off course R56 lines to fit onto them unless you already have an R56.

Good luck!

Im watching these too but i bet they go for a fair few quid and when you add brake loines and discs on there it wont be much cheaper than £650 which is what i can get them for

Hey, thanks for the tip off!
No point bidding yet though, they will be won in the last minutes of the auction.

You're very quick to find them, posting this thread only 50 minutes after the auction was listed Trying a bit of viral marketing maybe?
