   Saw a 206 today in the gym carpark looked tastefully modified as i was looking at the rear alloys i noticed it had drilled disks at the back with no calipers, so on closer inspection i realized they had been places over the drums has anyone seen these before the ones on the 206 looked crap but sure theres better ones out their.

   I doubt that it was "tastefully modified".

    To me, anyone who puts fake brakes on his car seriously lacks of taste, period. But please feel free to argue against that
