Well I hope anyone doesn't need one because according to Desira Fiat in Diss they are around £580 + VAT!!!!
If you want a refurbished one it's around the £380 + VAT!!
How the hell can they justify that??
I then called Camper UK in Lincoln. They are a Fiat commercial dealer as well as a motorhome dealer. Spoke to Carl in the parts department. Gave him my chassis number............. NOPE!
No longer made by Fiat. NOT AVAILABLE!?!?!? WHAT?
Now, my Elegance is only 10 years old, it is a Fiat Ducato base vehicle, are they seriously telling me that ALL Ducato vans are useless if their front callipers pack up?
Are they available? According to Desira in Diss they are at an astronomical cost but according to a different Fiat dealer they are no longer made?
I eagerly await Carl's return phone call (tomorrow now I guess after saying he'd ring back in 10 minutes, and that was at 4:30pm).
I've found one on eBay for £100 delivered. Do I take a chance it's the right one? I know it's a "pattern" one but it seems like I have no choice. I can't use my van till I get it sorted.
Anyone else had this problem lately?
