Drove the 45 miles home in the pouring rain
![]() So far I've found 2 things out... 1. The traction control works fine ![]() 2. The brakes are shockingly bad in std trim (not for long tho as a BBK has been ordered) Other than that what an absolutly superb car ![]() Now wheres that big brake kit I had on my old Focus RS lol Steve ![]()

Hello Steve B
BBK's are a bit of an expense on top of buying the CSL, a quick fix I've found (till funds permit) is to fit Pagid RS29 Brake Pad's all round, makes a considerable difference to the stopping capabilities over standard. |

K-Sport 8 pot 356mm kit £999 plus pads (I ran on EBC Bluestuff).... I had them on my 420bhp Focus RS and they were excellent, even punished them at the Ring and they gave me no problems.

Welcome
The brake upgrade is worth while. You should have bought mine ![]() If youre attending a few track days, a pad upgraded isn't going to cut. BBK required There's a few second hand AP's floating about at the moment, might be worth a look Good luck
