standard VW discs, and pagid fast road pads all round.

everything new two months ago after coming over the top of a hill in outside lane of dual carriageway at a fair lick to find a caravan sideways in road blocking both lanes.......took a trip over the double white lines to the other side to find enough room to stop, came up a few feet in front of the traffic rozzer who was trying to sort the whole mess out  :o :o

don't know who sh!t themselves the most, me or him  ;D

Standard vw everything, brand new discs and pads at the back, but at my last service they said the front discs were from a vr6!  That's on the mk3 16v.  Stops pretty well.


A VR6 isn't a way of life, it's just a car.
