Guys, I searched but could not find much so here goes.
Wifey drives like a woman... 1.2 is no ball of fire anyways... but.
Had the Spring mod yesterday and at 25k miles (03 plate, owned from new) dealer says the discs and pads need changing, is that normal? Now I know it depends on driving style etc but its 90% short journeys (5 miles or less) and like I say she drives real slow, she does seem to "flick" the brakes on a lot, followed her a few times to the dealers lmao!
I didnt need discs on my last car ("Mitsi" 1.9 DiD Carisma) or the Beemer before that and both did 70k+ and pretty hard miles they were too!
So are the discs as easy to swop as say a Fiesta or Micra (done a few of those) and can I get the gear from a Motor factor rather than FIAT?
