Default brakes

Does anyone know the source of front brake disks for a 603 series Britannia,
ie which vehicle is also equipped with the same girling outfit.

Am having no luck in replacing mine here in Oz as none of the parts
suppliers can match my worn ones

Thanks

Hugh

Hugh,
The calipers may be Girling, but it doesn't mean the discs are.

I bought new ones for my 411 a few years ago from Bristol Cars Services for £100 each, which given today's exchange rate isn't much more that AUD$200 each. They are probably the same as the Britannia. However, I was in London and brought them back in our luggage. I wouldn't want to pay airmail postage on them!
