    Calling all Factory JCW owners. Also anybody who has purchased the new JCW brakes on there new cars.

    I having a bit of a battle with BMW / John Clarks over quality issues with ours.

    Could you please send me by email some pictures of your discs, Can you also tell me the age of the car and the mileage that you have covered.

    My Email : neilandlorna@gizcam.fsworld.co.uk

    I cant say too much about the problem just now but will reveal all at a later date.

    Ryan at JC's has been fantastic on this issue,, but I've left 4 messages now for after sales to get in touch, still waiting, not a happy bunny.


    Cheers

    Neil.
