I'm new here. Just moved from Switzerland to Dundee and my car AK 1005 will follow soon. Reading some topics on this Forum, I'm happy to see I'm not the only one with brake problems. Alan Faulkner-Stevens already gave me some hints where to get an upgrade for my front brakes. Thanks again, Alan!
   I was wondering which type of rear brakes were fitted to my car. Seem to be Girlings. I don't know if these are DB 5 or Peugeot one's. Any good ideas. Where could I get rebuilding parts and brake pads in the U.K. ?
   
   Thanks for your help

Hi Christoph,
   
   make a picture of the rear brake and send it to me or post it here and I can tell you whether it is a DB 5 brake. Brake pads is no problem. You can get some from ebc http://www.ebcbrakesdirect.com/
