Difference in the price of the front pads alone? About £100 extra the thieving bastards.

330d brakes aren't bad to start with, but they're pretty damn powerful.

I'm not an out and out driver like some (Carl) and always have plenty left in reserve when it comes to braking with the BMWP kit.

I almost got some once. Then found out the discs were smaller than my standard ones.

Was gutted, why didnt they make an upgrade for the 335.
