80euro with pads or just for the labour? As for cheaper do it yourself its a piece of p1ss.

To be honest, that doesn't sound unreasonable.

Asbetsos free pads are expensive. Add the labour and I'd say its reasonable.

TBH the pads will be €30 - €40 and you'd be hard pushed to find a mechanic to jack your car up for €40 labour. Were you thinking that the second most important item on your car (after your tyres) should be less than a tank of petrol to replace?
