Couldnt afford an AP/Brembo upgrade so this was the next best thing. £500 for the lot which isnt too bad! Calipers give good clamping power but the standard 294mmx24mm discs and standard pads just fade after 1 hard stop!

They do fill the standard 17" P1 rims nicely!!!

Well ive just bought a house (1st house so big expence) so could do without the high running costs right now until ive moved into it for a while

Thinking about selling right after summer august maybe then use my sis's clio while shes away in New Zealand (free motoring for a year) then review the situation in a year or so & see what the funds are like - I have alot of weird & worderful ideas like
