Good call, I actually talked with them today. Refurbishing would take roughly 15 business days, hard to get hold of them at the moment, May or later would be best. Might be an option for a holiday or similar. Would cost me roughly 8.000€ vs. the 12.000 for new disks, so still some savings, but nothing major percentage-wise
So it did 35k miles in a 9 month period and only had 1 service, even though jag state 1 year or 15k miles!!
Also arent the rear calipers yellow on the carbon brakes?

It had the 78.000km service at 60.000km and the 104.000km service at 110.000km. See mileage history below.
Calipers -> the grey calipers are for the handbrake, main calipers are yellow.
I'm trying to work out from the photos. Looks like there are holes all over the rotors?? Is that right? Mine don't have anything like that.
Just noticed this comment so went back to look at the pictures. I think those may very well be aftermarket. The part number comes up in a search and leads to the Brembo site.
Only used ones on Car-Part.com too. If you don't want them tell me, because I do! The rears has one cracked, so you can get 3/4 rotors for $4500 with only 8k miles on them.
First post, have been reading a bunch before registering. I’m currently looking at an F-Type R Coupé with CCBs.
I‘d appreciate input -> how much life do they have left in them? Pads have recently been changed, but I’m on the fence when it comes to the disks. They’re rough to the touch and seem to have a few chips in the rear.
Slight noise, only under very light braking force. No speaking, more like soft grinding. First CCB car that I drove though, so no point of reference.
Thoughts? Front. Even wear as far as I can tell, but not smooth. Less worn than fronts, but some rough spots on the right.
You're right to be careful about this, consider it etc...I remember not too long ago I saw a post somewhere where a guy in Canada was looking at a $50k CND bill to do a complete replacement on the brakes. That kind of blew my mind. I think this was on another forum if I'm not mistaken.

Here's the link I was talking about...I still can't believe the cost...Perhaps we get extra roasted here in Canada, not sure...

Those are stock. Here is the front rotor from my 2015 R with 21k miles for comparison. You can’t see it on this photo, but they do say Brembo.
No your not getting it, jag state 15k miles or 1 year between services, that car has been every year regardless of miles.
Your car did 50k kms in one year, unless im reading that wrong!!

Yes, 50.000km in 9 months at one point even. And now it actually is my car. I bought the thing. Consensus amongst trusted friends was that the brakes have some life left in them and that the chips mainly influence the NVH (noise, vibration, harshness), which I don’t really care about and pad wear.
