I guess the automated system just assumes you're driving illegally if its showing a vehicle as Taxed but no Insurance on its database. Obviously there are instances that this can happen. The £50 feels more like a slap on the wrist for not updating the SORN or the Insurance status, as they don't have any proof that you've been using the vehicle or not. I guess if the FiveO got involved the punishment would be much greater.

Not many staff though!

Toyo Proxes TR1 here, mainly because of price but they're pretty decent all round and they still do a size that fits 9"

Watch those tyres, bro inlaw just wrote his Boxster off in what was a low speed spin on hard old tyres.

My money is on the valves on the flapper boxes being seized.

Just fronts.

Have had Boxster callipers fitted for some time now, which are now on the second set of pads with the same 3.2 discs. They will be OEM kinda pads, probably Textar, I can't remember when I changed the discs, it was a long time ago, so maybe 25-30k miles. Last time I changed pads there was still life in them, so can't really what mileage I am getting unfortunately. Many moons ago I went through a pair of discs in no time with Ferodo DS3000 fitted with standard callipers. Within less than a years/5k miles.

Never changed my rear discs, pads twice though. Front discs have been change probably 4 times.

Hey there, as Ian says share away. Assume you have a 930?
-
I think after 16 years and 65k miles they've done pretty well even if they are still in spec. For £75 each just replace them, Zimmerman are fine Ian. Pagid are also good, Brembo, etc. Have you checked ECP, CarParts4Less, GSF, etc? I've never been bothered about cross drilled, my experience is that the holes fill up with dust, crud and rust and can crack between them over time. So probably won't last another 16 years.

Beaky/Xris has taken a turn and is spending the night in hospital so I doubt he'll be in attendance.
