the only down side to the car is the passenger door lock. I think someones been at it with a screw driver, it still works fine but theres a hole just under the lock. Any one know how mcuh de-locking would cost? itd be sensible to do that i think. And it hasnt got alloys either so ill have to do with frisbies for a few months but im sure ill live!

That judder sounds like warped disks, you can get them skimmed or get new ones, I'd go for some grooved ones if I were you, (you can get your currents grooved), reduces brake fade (plus you're getting a mod while replacing something!)

Scooby will know where to get them from, (or might even supply them himself)

It's not something you can see...the brakes need to be heated up a little for you to notice the judder, right?

Brake warp is caused by heavy braking and people leaving their foot on the pedal while stopped, (which also blinds some drivers behind you wink ).
