No its my local mechanic that used to own the car. It is a disc off job. He is giving(if I go that route) them to someone else to skim.

There's only two reasons to skim discs Imo. And that's if they judder or the run out is bad. Wouldn't bother otherwise. :) As said, if they passed the mot and work fine then you don't need to spend the wonga on them !!

Leave 'em till the pads need changing anyway and get them skimmed then? (then it's only a small bit on top of when you have to spend the rest of the money anyway)
