Brake pads in Paris?

[winthorpe]

Hey guys, got a bit of an odd question.. Does anyone know of a mechanic or garage that is open in Paris? The brake pads on my auto went on the way back from playing a festival yesterday... Scary! It seems everyone is on holiday here! and RAC don't cover vans older than 11 years with my policy in Europe (Barclays; I knew there was a catch), so I can't even pay a surcharge to have them tow it... I'm also only 23 so doesn't look like I can hire a van to get back either (to add to the hecticness i'm flying to America tomorrow at midday from heathrow!) anyone got any ideas? No worries if not, i just thought I'd see if any of you guys know anyone here that may be able to help?

Kind regards,

Louis

Thank you guys! Much appreciated.. I am just about to catch my flight and the rest of the band found one garage that was open! So fingers crossed they get home safely!

Again thanks for the help!

Cheers,
