I have a pair of Reyland(ap racing) Calipers that are sat in my shed. I have misplaced the original discs but they didn't have much life in anyways if I'm honest. Think they were around 305mm though??
What are these worth as they are for just a pair of calipers??
Same as these pictured:

would entirely depend on condition.
AP have a knack for corrossion rendering them as good as scrap metal a lot of the time.
On the flipside a decent set can be worth a few hundred

Will dig them out and take a look, there in a sealed protected box so should be as they were when they came off the car. There not just slung in the back of my shed thats for sure
Cheers Steve, will dig them out tonight and give a clean up

you need to check all the retaining screws, conditions of the alu around the pistons, any corrosion eating into the bores, usually they dont have dust seals, and siezed pistons.
Corroded veins can also be costly

Paid 500 for mine in like new condition with discs and bells. I've had them for 5 years or so, no corrosion anywhere so not sure that info is correct at all.

if theyre reylands then mgtf 160bhp model pads. cheap.
also the discs if you have the bells, need the centres taken out the mgtf ones then drilled to fit the bell.
its on some page in my project thread. discs and pads were about £100.

I did read somewhere they were same as the mgtf ones?
I don't have the bells anymore nic
Reckon they would be worth sourcing? Or just sell as they are?
I will probably end up with another corsa at some point but for now I want a bike lol
