Checked out the link nipper575 posted and it appears it has some rather impressive pedigree. Obviously not an epic fail, but still, imo, a visual assault.

Completely agree, they even look cheap in real life.
The performance speaks for itself. I'm also a huge fan of the F20C despite all of the negativity I read and hear about them.

Left it so long that it grinded out grooves so god damn deep that when I put the disc onto a record turntable it ACTUALLY played Daft Punk.... EDIT: I'm not dumb, I knew they were shagged, but I just didn't have the cash at the time to get them fixed |

That post by I_Con
one way to make you car stop quick, with out touching the brake pedal. so lucky the pad did not catch the rotor = spinning down the road A bloke let his brakes do a similar thing. He is not around to tell you about it, because of it!!!!

I'm going to buy an Audi, then put a Skoda badge on it just so I can be like all those really cool Commodore drivers.

With the AFF Toy Run tomorrow that I want to take the LTD on, I thought it would be a good time to fix the back brakes which have been a little bit squeaky lately.
I bought all the pads last week, didn't think about rotors. Thought I would start with the wheel that's making the noise, took it off and this is what I found: So its going to be a quick trip up to get some rotors for it, but why not check the front ones to save two trips? So I've pulled the front wheel off, to find that they're relatively newish, and so are the pads. They really don't look too bad. What does look bad is what greeted me when I pulled the wheel off: Both front tyres are down to metal on the inside, but deceivingly good on the outer. The two fronts are getting new tyres as I speak, working on the brakes (just stopped for a bite and to post!) and hopefully she'll all be ready for tomorrow! After tomorrow will shed it until I can get it booked in for a wheel alignment, don't want two brand new tyres going the same way those fronts have!

^^^^ That was a purpose built car for driving in pipelines, like Jeremy Clarkson did in the Fiesta.
