You probably spend more on your "Mr Sheen" polishing it than petrol!

8k in just under a year... 2,500 mile round trip to the south of France helped a bit like.

What sort of mileage should I be expecting the brake pads to need replacing under normal wear? I'm thinking 30 to 35k??

fronts or rears? im still on original fronts at 65k, rears had to be changed due to corroding discs at about 50k.

Oh right okay... Fronts I was thinking! Never owned a car for this long before...

Edit to add: Car had been (gently) tracked about 10 times though, will get the garage to check it out at the service...
