Sounds like he put cheap pads on as well. "Buy cheap buy twice" get some descent discs and pads on mate.

On my bug the guy who had it before me put really cheap disks on the rear and it completely cooked the disk till it shattered ... I recommend you change them ASAP ... Look on camskill, Scooby parts or give Eurospec 2000 a call dude

My genuine brembo Pads on my Bug STI used to squeal like a bitch in slow moving traffic moving round town, used to be embarasing when pulling up to junctions etc.
