Punto Brakes & pads

Just booked my 3 year old HLX in for 1st MOT. The guy said as its done 42000 miles it may need brake discs changed in his experience. I had the pads done by Fiat at 21,000 so I presume these will probably need doing again also.

How much are Punto discs on average & pads as can't remember what I paid last time for the pads?

Thanks anyone who helps

last disks i got (6 months ago) were £14 each for a volvo 440 so punto ones should be cheeper than that. pads should be around £10.

Decent discs can start from about £40 a side and decent pads start from about £30.

I'd recommend EBC Greenstuff pads. They cost £50 a set, but they make a huge difference - my 1994 55SX actually stops properly! Standard pads are utter garbage, the worst ones being the official FIAT items.
