Also the headlights in standard dipped form are also very poor, almost undriveable, need to upgrade bulbs me thinks

Change the brake fluid and make sure the calipers are all working and clean...

As for the headlights dont expect much from a 90's clio, lol

I have The halfords 100w rally bulbs in mine, and followed a traffic cop at night for a few miles and he didnt pull me over so id say they cant be that bright.
Do make a difference though.

depending how you drive really, fast road discs & pads are good if your on a budget but a set of 4pots are much much better :D

Don't fitting 100 watt bulbs melt wiring????? Melted wires on my old 3i when I fitted more powerful bulbs.

i use tar-ox groved discs and green stuff pads on the front and standard on the back, seem to be very effective, got me out the shite a few times
