Well I might be able to answer this as I had mine done yesterday!

Front pads cost £115 and rears £120.

I was having my 25,000 mile service yesterday (£350) so managed to negotiate the pads down to £95 and £100 (although not sure if I got a good deal or not).

Whilst there, had an interesting conversation with one of the servicing guys who said that if I turned off the VSA then I could extend the life of the pads further by up to 40,000. Personally I'm not going to go down that route.

Also came away with a lot of scratches after having some trim replaced (although as usual won't be able to prove it wasn't them). I think it's the norm now to come away with damage after a visit to the dealers.
