I don't understand how they think that's a good idea ???

If something happens then they're not insured, the car's not insured and throw a dose of TWOC into it and there's the whole unemployment situation and dealer reputation damage... Not to mention fixing/replacing the car and all the hassle that goes with that.
I think they probably are insured. Motor dealers insurance or something.

All sorted £100. I even gave them a £5 tip because  I am such a very nice man. :)

I have the old pads, the inner pads look more shagged than the outer pads.

Replacement pads are Pagid T2072 according to the box.

They wanted to drive the car to check all was fine. I declined. First time I have had such a request.

I think the pads were original, so lasted 19500 miles. I'll see how long the Pagid pads last.

Most of the braking power is the responsibility of the front brakes so perhaps it won't matter too much if the rear brakes are piss poor. ::) :)
