    200: *WARNING* to all 200 owners! Everyone should read

    I'm still shocked/surprised by this, my mate's 200 had the living crap kicked out of it from day 1, it did about 30+track days, first he knackered the gearbox, fixed under warranty no issue, then the engine went bang spectacularly (con rod came out the engine and was found on the road!) all...

    Whats peoples thoughts on Mintex 1144 pads?

    why do you need 2 piece discs for DS2500s? Brembo HC standard fit one piece discs are only £80 for the pair (proven in endurance racing too BTW), or you can go for 2 piece AP or PF discs at cira £700 the pair - easy choice!
