livewire7116 Posted January 9, 2009 Author Report Posted January 9, 2009 Been thinking of upgrades just wasnt sure what i could get for mine to work out how much more i needed to put towards them,
X-pack-Glyn Posted January 13, 2009 Report Posted January 13, 2009 its just silly aint it, this was supposed to be a CHEAP upgrade, and it once was, a tenner would get you a pair at one time.
lotusless Posted January 13, 2009 Report Posted January 13, 2009 its just silly aint it, this was supposed to be a CHEAP upgrade, and it once was, a tenner would get you a pair at one time. yeh but that was when there were 3 princesses in every breakers + the last pair i had sold for £20
Admin Vista Posted January 14, 2009 Admin Report Posted January 14, 2009 £200 That's a bit optimistic, I reckon between £120 and £150 if they're in good nick and ready to bolt on with no work needed. I got mine for £40 (in need of spacers and a seal kit)
Silverback Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 Reckon they're worth saving then Vista? I've got a set in the shed in need of seals, pistons and spacers. They've been sat there for god knows how long and never really thought about refurbing them.

Silverback Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 Sweet, I'd best keep my eyes peeled for a set then....
Admin Vista Posted January 14, 2009 Admin Report Posted January 14, 2009 Sweet, I'd best keep my eyes peeled for a set then.... Has them and the repair kits listed in his shop http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Bigg-Red_W0QQ_ ... 18Q2el1247 Or a complete kit including pistons (for one caliper) http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Austin-PRINCESS-T ... 18Q2el1247
JP. Posted January 14, 2009 Report Posted January 14, 2009 Payed £75 for a decend Princess set at the '08 Classic Ford show and a few months later payed £60 for an other set on eBay.
