Well it's that time of year and guessing like me we are starting on our jobs to do lists while its peeing it down outside?

So mine is a short but realistic list:

  • Replace the front brake rotors with new vented and grooved discs plus some decent Ferrodo pads to suit the 4 pot AP's


  • New leather gators for the handbrake and gear lever care of the Zigmeister
  • New carpets and seats out to fix sticking adjuster
  • Mini service
Should keep me out of mischief!

Zig the pads are only now made to order for the AP callipers so a wait for them and a bit more pricey but you get what you pay for yes
