Welcome.
Tough ask there.
I would budget, "do it once, do it all, do it properly, and repeat in another 15 years", but not everyone agrees, so be it.
The UK market is sooooooo different to ours, but the drinking time stays the same, haha.

Thanks to everyone who welcomed me to the forum I should have left typing my query till the sun came up and could see properly what I was typing. Still, anyone have views on what should be changed at 100,000miles if I spend about £3000 on the things I talked about or have I left any important things out. I have just changed the front discs and pads and rear pad to Brembo. Car appears to be driving flawlessly . Just completed 1500 mile trip to Croatia from UK without a hiccup at the weekend.
