When I looked into it the cheapest 276 x 25mm discs I could find where about £100 each

You do realise that your B2 is 4 x 100 and not 4 x 108 don't you?

[b2_sport]

1986 FWD B2 is 4x100
1986 Quattro B2 is 4x108, i was lead to believe?

These are going on the Quattro not the Sport, I don't really want to do hub conversion theres too much more to fanny about with that I just don't want to entertain.

OK, sorry, assumed they were going on the B2 Sport

P.S
In my defence, you did mentioned B2 80 in your original post..

these look 276 x 25mm to me, so they are good for the swap yeah? Plenty of meat left on the discs and pads yet as well....

If they are what you say, then I got a bargain of the the century for this complete package I picked up! woo hoo

Not wanting to throw a spanner in the works but there are two different discs available for B3 cars

276x25 51mm height - these fit 90 20v
276x25 56mm height - these fit Coupe 20v

Those look like Coupe discs so you'll need Coupe hubs

Could, you, please, learn to post images? I at first, when seeing first post thought that you're just writing something, only selecting "quote" turned up that you've posted some images, unfortunately, you want to post webpages, that contain images, not images themselves. Sometimes I feel that it's the privilege to be able to click "copy image adress"

Might be. And why "B4 coupe (s2)"? There's no "B4 coupe" and we're not talking about any S2 parts here - we're talking about parts that B3 A90 20v or Coupe 20v/2.8 was equipped with.

I believe that installed base of latter stuff was way wider than former. At least A90 20v specific parts are beginning to disappear - I recently came to know availability of front wishbone ball joints, because while they are almost identical to the ones found in coupes/B4, they are unique because castor angle is smaller due to smaller wheel arches - when I got need for them, one was found collecting dust on shelf of local parts store for 3 [!!!] years, another one had to be ordered, and only thing that was offered was one made by Moog, which is rather cheap end offering.
