Just had my daughters car serviced complete with a Wof and the
comment on the Wof is 'front brake rotors grooved and rusty - borderline'.
I assume that these will not pass the next Wof in 6 months.
So that I can give my daughter a heads up of the cost, how much is it likely to be?

Hi there, it looks like new discs will be needed and pads depending on the condition when the work is carried out. Discs are often $80--$150 each plus pads at around $70-90 so you can possibly expect a $500 bill.
For specifics you would need to call a car repair centre with your exact vehicle details and they can give a quote for the lot, and also obtain actual part prices.

Thanks for that. I will start getting my daughter to start saving up for February.
