Oh how i laughed.

Remember those almost brand new looking 1144s that were on my car on Sunday Mac ? 70% worn on the front, 80% on the back according to my local Vauxhall (ahem) specialist. Didn't even mention the discs.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Also quite strange considering the last time i had them changed my pads the backs had tonnes left when the fronts were gubbed. My braking style must have changed dramatically :lol:

I elevated your status to "lotus specialist" for the purpose of a rant, and surprisingly enough the wear rate was later changed to being "advisory only" and they were only telling me in case i left it another 10k before going near a garage. :x

Still got a nice discount, some very marginal work carried out under warranty and it flew its MOT so its not all bad 8)

Is the "conts" part of the thread title meant to be an abbreviation of "continues" or was it a typo of something else.... :D

Dave wasn't I at KH - was in the pub most of the day! 8) Will be coming up to EF on sat for a chat and a blag off people though!

I went over to the world famous "Macs Garage" on Sunday to get him to have a butchers at my brakes before the big service and MOT this week to try an avoid big unpleasant bills. Last time they quoted me £400 plus fitting for OEM pads :twisted:

Yes it was Arnold Clark, unfortunately for warranty work i have no choice. CONTS !

......and JJ that's not an abbreviation! :roll:

Do you think it will catch on in the same way as FCUK ?
