Re: Brakes

Thanks for your replies, I've spotted some pagid brake pads (front) at £37.80 from Euro car parts. Cheap enough to give them a whirl me thinks.

Re: fuel mpg average indicator

I've had mine a week now. Still grinning like a Cheshire cat and driving enthusiastically. Done 300 miles and getting 38.4 to the gallon.

Re: Brakes

Thanks for your reply fun meter. Sounds like you wouldn't go for the 1144"s again and they are a pretty penny. Hope fully other members will leave some feedback on other brake pads.

Re: Wet bottom

Hi all. Vehicle went to the dealers today, one chap had heard of the window problem I experienced. Any way to cut a long story short, they have reprogrammed the window controllers.

I must say I am disappointed with the brakes though, they are very sharp at low speed and fade when braking from high speed. I have just spent some of my hard e...
