Mine have now bedded in. I believe that short notice hard braking appears to be better.
Should have done distance check on an emergency stop before and after the change of discs.

Ohh it's all grown up.
Looks good, just have to be good at targetted throwing of all the things one needs !!
It’s one thing getting stuff into it, but another completely when you want it out again, especially from the far side!

Looking all ready for a family trip to Gods country.
Manged to replace the front calipers in hopes that fixes the lack of brake pedal... 3 of 4 guide pins were seized but yet after removal clean and reassembly the brakes still super spongy... there'll be more explaining in my dedicated thread 
I'll be down for the meet still maybe someone can tell where the issue originates! Getting very lost almost replaced the whole braking system now... only the hand brake cable and 2 brake lines have not been replaced...

It’s a while yet… and I have a couple more upgrades
Currently working on the CarPlay screen, primarily to stream music from my phone into the car stereo aux (got some great speakers to make use of) and to give a bigger/better sat nav screen. Didn’t really want the cheap rear camera that comes with it as the parking sensors are great, but on reflection it will be useful when I’m on farmland as I often drive/manoeuvre near ditches/stumps etc., so I’ll fit it while I’m doing the job.
Think it’ll be mounted somehow using the centre speaker cover as that’s easily removable, gives good access for wires behind the dash/down to the passenger fuse box, and easily replaced if I make a pig’s ear out of it!

Wheel off, and there is a plastic cap on the face of the drum. Prise that off and adjuster can be seen/moved with a screwdriver (the adjuster is on a horizontal plane level with the hub nut).Just handbrake to adjust now, hoping it's easy
Handbrake cable adjuster can be got to via the coin tray of the console.
DIscs on the back ?
Yes, but the hand brake is small shoes within an inner drum (think yours is an early model, right? Not electronic)
Ahhh yes you're right, I'll do it when I swap wheels front to back, 2mm more tread on back than front
