HI Ian.
I'm not trying to come across as harsh, what I am saying is if I have an advisory I like to deal with it not let it still be on the MOT the following year, we are all different, as I said I changed my discs in November but only recently I removed the rear drums and cleaned then out also gave them another coat of protective paint, and painted the calipers, basically keeping on top of the maintenance of owning a car.
no worries, I was worried I was crossing swords with you and that's the last thing I want to you as you are a member that I respect and whos opinion I value

That's cos your country is SO BIG that you don't really need brakes at all.----

They should be O.K. if you are driving straight through and don't intend stopping off somewhere on your journey.
