Could you stick your forum name next to the list so that I know who drives what?

Anyone from Aberdeen(shire) heading down in a tintop with space for a spare set of wheels?

Are the Aberdeen crownd meeting up for the run down? Portlethan Tesco?
I will be taking my A4 down, i will probably have space for wheels, but i wont be coming back to Aberdeen as im going on holiday directly after KH, if its just to get them down tho and they fit (AS LONG AS THEY ARE NOT MASSIVE) i should be able to fit them in.
Many Thanks for the offer.

I will need to get them back up the road though.

Anyone else got space?

Unlikely to make this now - had removed front brakes in preparation for the new rotors dispatched by MMC yesterday but on checking the tracking no. this morning, turns out they used Parcelfore 48 so not due to deliver until Monday. Bummer. Could put old rotors back on but showing signs of cracking at the drilled holes so unless there is a miracle from Parcelforce (rotors are in Aberdeen depot already) vehicle of choice for weekend will be lawnmower rather than Exige. :cry:

I am sure someone local could lend you a pair of disks until yours come through. You could change them at KH between 8 and 9, only a 30 min job.

I have spares but I believe the S1's are a different size.

you should call Parcelforce anyway to see if they have them in the depot anyway. Most of the time they have it in the depot on the Fri afternoon or sat morning so you could pick them up? That's exactly what happened with our tyres before the LoT day. :thumbsup

:thumbsup Good thinking Jen! Here was me about to give up. Turns out the parcel was loaded at Aberdeen depot and will be sent out to Royal Mail sorting office in Banchory today. Banchory guys will keep a look out for it arriving and give me a call, Just hope that it gets unloaded in Banchory before they shut up shop this afternoon. Have to say the guys at both depots were very helpful. There is still hope.

If you're still stuck I have freshly skimmed rotors sitting in the garage (I assume it's 308mm for the 4 pot AP's?).
