I once did this to a set of greenstuff pads, anything else and they would have faded completely, but these kept on powering through!

This was a couple of minutes after stopping, they were much brighter when I first stopped and were on fire for good measure.

I've seen too many EBC pads seperate the friction material from the backing, and good spec OE pads are more than ample on the road no matter what car it is.
I always found my S2 Activa brakes very strong, the S1 were good too with Brembos, there just seems to be a mentaility that because everyone has red stuff pads, they must be good, personally i think they are over-rated, i had them on my Maestro and it killed the discs very quickly.

I'm surprised this one hasn't been snapped up by the Pugger's yet...

That's got to be worth a punt... Looks like the alloys are a bit rough though. Almost looks as if they have lumps out of them...

It's worth that for breaking as going by the current scrap prices, it'd weigh in for near £200 on it's own...

It has the tired look about it. The missing lumps in the wheels is probably where wheel weights are or have been.

Activa Alert! Just spotted this one on eBay:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Citroen-Xanti ... 43b1fa98ff" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Not actually that far from us, however lack of MOT and been off the road since February 2009 does go against it as it's so easy to spend a pretty sum on Activa's...
Nice combo' of Silver with Black Leather (and Winter Pack) so could be a cheap car for someone, and nice enough miles at 91K too...
I'd rather have Dean's though...
