    This is the set of 2 piece 330mm discs I have been looking at, a bit dearer to buy first time round because of bells and adaptors but 2nd time should be cheaper as you are just replacing the rotors. to go bigger than 323mm you would need adaptors I believe...

    Ok...let me have it...my car has been stood for 4 years...and now I need it again

    Doors lock and unlock by themselves.

    Yeah that was worrying me aswell , the fact that someone could steal cd player etc as the car was open with windows down that and it could rain all day/night. bit of a pain in the ass but you could just pull a lead of the battery,at least then you know its safe.

    Doors lock and unlock by themselves.
