Looked at it on Autotrader but that mileage on original discs (no history of a disc change, I asked) makes me a nervous wreck!

shouldn't worry about that.

R33 has done about 80k on his, and he drives like a right :knob: and his are fine.

you can also get them rebuilt for 500 a disc if there is an issue. Having driven a C6 with and without ramics, if you want to map to above stage 1 then I se them as a must.

True story! Ceramic discs should be good for up to 150k miles before you replace or refurbish them. I love them and can't imagine my C6 without them.
