Default First pad change from new

Well the front and rear pads finally needed changing. The rears seem to have worn slight quicker than the fronts and were changed a few months ago. The fronts had their indicator light come on less than 200 miles ago but after reading a post on here and not wanting to cause any damage to the ceramic discs, I had them done. The pads looked like they still had some meat on them until I checked the inner pads. One side, they literally had a couple of mil left on them if that! Close call

Rears were £320 and fronts were £373 incl VAT which isn't a bad outlay after nearly 14 years and 102k miles
