Newbie S Type Owner
good morning robert and welcome to the club i think its all down to size of engine and & model type ie sport gt gti the only sure way is to get a tape out v6 sport comes out at 320mm front £83.99p - 288mm rear £64.99p v6 non sport 300mm front £88.99p - rear 288mm £64.99p thats from 2002 - 2006 models these are the only two that is listed from m-tec brakes ltd as for the pads mintex are ok but if you want better stopping power go for ebc green or yellow stuff pads this would be my choice as ive used mtec brakes on most of my cars regards ron forgot to mention i always use & have holed & grooved dics as well hope this helps ron

Caravans [inter alia].
hi all well I have to report that all went very well today I hitched the caravan up to the x type and wow what a joy to drive on a 100 mile round trip motorway a & b roads kitty pulled well & smooth though the gears + a long uphill pull no problems so all in all the only thing I didn't do was take the mpg damm-it. so I think buying the x type was the perfect choice so my rating for car and caravan bailey ranger 460/2 combo is 100% :) :) :) :) regards Ron
