Slow-fit fitter
As I said earlier, I would be under the motor this weekend fixing up the brakes on the front end. Here is some photographic evidence for you disbelievers:

Old disc

New disc
The job took longer than I expected because I had to pop out a couple of times to pick up some extra tools. Particularly difficult was pushing back the brake calliper piston on the near side (which you need to do to allow room for the new thicker brake pads). Much cursing and venting was finally solved by the purchase and use of a rather large and manly vice.
Anyhow, 'tis done. Let's hope they work.
