Been on a 2 hour drive round Matlock, Darley Dales etc, loving the weather and awesome roads. Get back near home and the rear brakes start to sound weird, like theres a stone lodged in em, so take it steady just in case. 100 yards later BANG and see my brake pad fly off the car in the rear view mirror. Pump the pedal to get some braking back and nurse back home, into the garage, where it’ll stay till next weekend when I can be arsed to fix it.

Only fitted these rear pads about 4 month back for the MOT, done maybe 2k in em fine. Fitted myself so know they were done properly, seems weird! Maybe got way to hot and destroyed em as they were only cheap pads?

Anyway, someone recommend me some decent pads please? Prob need discs to, see pic! Actually, looking at the pic it seems that thin bar has vanished to!?
