September Special Offer: R56 Works Sport Brakes

Hi,

Our September offer is JCW 17" Sports brakes, as found on the new John Cooper Works model.

Key features:
Four-piston aluminium fixed calliper on the front axle finished in red including the John Cooper Works logo.
Perforated and grooved, internally ventilated brake discs on the front axle, improving thermal capacity and reducing the formation of water film between the brake pad and brake disc.
Red-painted single-piston fixed calliper on the rear axle.
Attractive design which underlines the sporty character especially when combined with open-spoke alloy wheels.

Our fitted price is £1170 inc vat

Please be aware that these brakes will not all wheels. I have attached a compatibility matrix along with a picture.

Thanks
M

How long does fitting take?

Are you willing to retro fit these onto R53's?

Mini Brakes

HI,

Fitting is 3.5 - 4 hours

Unfortunatley we cant fit them to an R53. As far as MINI are concerned they are not compatible.
I'm happy to supply only for £885 if anyone would like to attempt to fit elsewhere

Thanks

So they will fit 17" Crown Spokes .... interesting. I thought they were limited to one specific 18" JCW rim (whatever it is that the factory Works comes with ).

Can i just ask how you figure out 3.5-4 hours to fit these brakes.

That seems a very very excessive time to me, especially if you have a 4 poster ramp.??????

Hi,

We can supply the brake kit for £850 including vat.

Please note .... The car will require coding once fitted.

Thanks

Hi,

Fitting time is approx 3 hours the extra is the time required for coding prior to and after fitment,

This is not charged - just the 3 hours for actual fitting time. It take approx 1.25 for fronts and 1.75 for rears due to having to remove some under body trims and all calipers etc are replaced.

I'm sure the fitting time could be reduced if more than 1 person was working on the vehicle.

regards
m
