excellent rigidity, a consistent bite
point under heavy braking, and a
significant reduction in unsprung
weight.
The standard steel discs are
generously proportioned,
measuring 350 mm in diameter at

for optimum performance in the
wet. Revised brake spoilers help to
maximise cooling and ventilation.
The system also includes pad-wear
indicators.
Other standard features include
four-channel ABS (version 8.0)
