try living in Northern Ireland or parts of Scotland lol! It is still part of the UK but some UK sellers/couriers do not believe it to be (I know the reasons behind it though). Royal Mail I believe are the only ones who do, and price accordingly.

But from the link I sent, there are part numbers listed for the Budweg products. With this, you and Bienet should be able to find somewhere relatively local (Budweg are a Danish company). The Budweg caliper I bought a few years ago, was identical to the original, including the stamped numbering on the body.

Brakes Int when I got mine, supplied the Budweg 190 calipers new for £75 each and the rears for the diesel (same as the rears on a 1.8) again new for £65 per pair! I was kicking myself, as I could have bought all four for roughly what I paid for second hand, and what it cost me to refurbish myself (4x rebuild kits with pistons, sandblasting, paint)
