Hi Adam

Thanks for all the help on the phone today

I apologise for this rambling mail which I hope makes sense LOL

Taking the rear brakes first

I had a look around the car today and have to say the rear Disks and pads are completely wrecked !!

Here's a pic from a while ago and from today..




Completely shagged !!



I have measured the discs and they seem to be 320mm........



Please order replacement discs as discussed on the phone which I guess are the 318mm jobbies...... I will sell a kidney on e-bay later

As for the rear pads, You kindly quoted for Black Diamond rear pads.....I've only ever had experience of OEM, Ferrodo, Pagid (blue) and Tar-ox. Any chance of any Pagid pads??

I have had a look at the front pads and they don't look too bad, I forgot I had the discs and pads changed at the front and not the rear !

Here's a pic of the set up when I had the discs and pads changed.....



And here's a pic of the pads today



Not too bad IMHO




The Superleggera's need a refurb though...... I had my eye on these

Pro Race 1.2 White

Or something similar

Sorry about the long mail but I'd like to sort out the rear brakes, have the front brakes checked out (and see you again if needed) and buy some wheels / get the tracking sorted

Hope this makes sense

Cheers

Shaun

Slightly older pic..
