I can't believe you payed £150 just for discs and pads, would'nt even cost that much to get standard items replaced at a garage. You've still gota fit it all, definatly get it all taken back and get a Cav or Cally set-up. Dont worry about them being second hand, my brakes are off a J-reg Cav SRI and they have been spot on.
