Thanks for the kind offers, chaps. Live and learn, I fear.
Pads were at 1/4-1/3 left and discs were lipped. The suspension arms had been spotted last year when I had it serviced as a "must do before the next MOT".
At least the front end does now feel tighter and the brakes are more responsive, so it's not completely disappeared money.
Next up will be the tyres. Mix of Bridgestone (f) and Pirelli (r) right now, and the traction light pops up more at greasy junctions than I think it should. Will probably go for Goodyear Asym F1s. And negative experiences with those?
I managed to pick up some FL rear lights from Germany last month via eBay. A very worthwhile upgrade, I think. Nicely sharpens the look of the rear of the car and through some optical illusion makes the entire rear light cluster look slimmer.
