DS1.11 if you're doing track days.

Standard Brembo pads aren’t the most confidence inspiring. I switched mine out for HP2000 which is the Brembo Sport version and those were a little better. I’m currently using DS2500s, but not even sure if they’re available these days. I’m talking for general daily road use. Lots of other...

Brigsy’s a feckin’ Renault legend, a Yorkshire lad through and through — one of ours!

Around £570 vs £740 for Bilstein kit.
