Have used these before.

£120 for metro 4 pots!

I also used them, wasn't very happy, the silver paint is very thin & rust showed through whilst the calipers were still sat in the garage. Also more importantly I had to return one of the calipers as the seals were damaged & it leaked when fitted. They did pay the return postage but only after asking twice.

Used em 3 times now, 2 x Mini (both 4 pot) one Mk2 Gti, never had a problem (so far).

But tempted to save up and get MiniSpares 4 pots

I would be wary of either 4 pots or the Minispares ones, the standard calipers will lock up easily in the wet & in the dry if pushed hard. I had 4 pots on mine when I bought the part build but changed them back to standard, they are adequate, but they are not as good as when I had the new style pedal box, but I don't know if that's down to the discs on the rear or the poor design of the old pedal box.

Run 4 pots (non vented) and found them very good.

Think its down to which brake master cyclinder you are using as well.

The buggy is so light up front you don't want 4 pot calipers or they WILL lock up!
