So I went for a spirited drive this morning and got to wondering about the efficacy of my brakes.....
So no one around, nice dry straight road and on with the anchors.....
I know people say that the brakes are no great shakes, but I was expecting something with a bit of bite. Rubbish! I couldn't even get the ABS to kick in. Tried several times thinking that perhaps they need warming up, but no appreciiable difference. What's the stopping distance supposed to be for a 4.2 QPV with standard disks and pads? Should the brakes be able to lock the wheels on a dry road and get the ABS kick in?
