Prefer the smaller Mondeo ones myself.

I don't think the Escos ones look right, although many people think the opposite.

softlines are really nice. Personally I would have standard, but can see the appeal changing them.

Softlines suit the S1.

Take the discs off and put the drums back problem solved. You really don't need them anyway as the drums are really up to the job at hand
