Is this a Land Rover modification or from an aftermarket company?

Waste of money IMHO.
As a 2007 TDV8 yours should have Bembro front brakes anyway. These are pretty good.
Won't increase the resale value either.

Sound like a lot for 4 calipers, 4 discs and a set of pads - more Porsche Ceramic Brake territory, not RR!

Yeah it has the brembo brakes. I was going to have the done red and they need the pads replacing after xmas ive been told. I was just thinking that to replace the whole thing might be a good idea. As I seem to be always heavy the pedals!!

Thanks !

Although im definitley going to have them done red.

Out of interest what do they mean by 4/6 pot>

How fast does an oil burner go anyway?

Personally I wouldnt bother - from a resale point of view I would think it could harm the value.

4/6 pot relates to the number of pistons in the brake calipers that press on the pads.

About the same speed as a 4.2 supercharged lately.

Have to say, a pot of red brake caliper paint is a lot cheaper!
