   Quick question, a guy who test drove my car thought there was something up with the brakes, also when i first got the car i did too... but i was told thats just how they are on saxos. Is that true or? they work fine, just took some getting used to... it seems they are not very sensitive at all. Just checking...

   Saxo brakes are generally shit mate, but get a mate to check them over and tweak em if necessary

   1.1 discs are solid and small therefore breaking is gash.

   had the same issue when the missus sold her Quiksilver to a lass that had been learning to drive in a mini, nothing wrong with the brakes just not what she was used to
