A bit of life left?

[colinallcars]

Being a Scot, I like to get my money’s worth. Could I squeeze another couple of thousand miles out of these?

Not down to the backing yet. Bang them back in and don't worry about it

Just turn up the regen braking on the EV and you'll get miles more miles out of those.

Oh wait....

Folks round here are "proper Yorkshire", they would say you lads from Scotlandshire must be made of money to be changing brake pads whilst there's still visible friction material on them.!

A swede would first ask if you are jewish, if your answer is yes, they would say you're a cheapskate?

If you put the Plywood on top they will do a few Trips!

Start using your gearbox to slow down instead

 

[Trickythemerc]

Just give them a smear of JB Weld and you will get another year out of them

Why would anyone risk their life with bad brakes using worn pads on a premium car?
Buy a Prius and you'll still have money left in your pocket for other stuff

If they are on the back....then there's another years there.....on the front?....then get new!!!!

Joking apart there is no "risking their life" involved....all the time there is friction material left then it will stop just as sell as if they where new. Unless you track it where heat transfer to the fluid might be an issue.

You probably could if you don't refit them. Should last a lifetime on the workbench
