Yes loads of places sell reconditioned ones, a quick search of Google or eBay brings up dozens of results. Brakes international are common and you can send yours to Bigg Red if you want to.

Managed to locate a pair from a breaker for £75 delivered. The amount of money this car had consumed recently I can't afford another £200. Still needs an exhaust and rear tyres!

Only thing id worry about is the reliability of these breaker parts your more than likely gunna have to get them refurbed in the very near future.

Year down the line will he honour it though is what im thinking, as your probably aware its only a matter of time before rear calipers go when there originals.

I'd like to but I can't see one being any cheaper to maintain. I've spent more than the car cost in parts this year alone.
