Re: Advice on brakes

agreed about stopping distance but moderns will allways slip in front so you give more distance and so on especially on motorways which I used to do quite often

Re: Advice on brakes

a morris minor with standard brakes and even wide wheels and tyres to suit will not brake as good as a modern
try it someday when modern suddenly brakes in front of you , you will go straight into the back of the vehicle

Re: Advice on brakes

in todays motoring I think disc brakes re a sensible upgrade, especially as modern vehicles can stop on a sixpence if they overtake you and suddenly stop

Re: Seat foam replacement

I agree also
but if a modern pulls in front of you on the motor way and suddenly stops you aint gonna stand a chance
its a fact that more and more cars on the road with much better brakes
for local run arounds they are just fine
