AP from Questmead, they are always good for a deal. You will have full access to spares and servicing.

It all goes back to balance. Not just about getting callipers and fitting them.

Are you sure this set up will stop the car effectively and under control?

Better spend £1500 properly than £1000 wasted

Ahmmm !

In the past 10 000 miles, my Pikey Porsche BREMBO conversion has proven to be quite effective and consistently under control

Brands Hatch X3... Bedford X2... Snetterton (old circuit) X1 and Spa X1 (technically a half day)
... ohh and not forgetting the F1 GP circuit @ Nurburgring X2 (not to be confused with the Nordschleife you're referring to)
