Finally sorted the rear brakes on the avant. They were COMPLETELY ****ed. Didnt quite realise how bad until i had them off. Huge chunks seemed to have come off the surface of the disks, really odd!

One caliper was half siezed, needed a hammer to move the handbrake arm, other seemed ok but the pads were almost worn away. VERY much overdue, clearly been putting it off for far too long!
Looking much better now:

Bled them up and had a drive, they feel a little spongey so i think i need to bleed them some more (no surprise there!)
Also had a drive over to glasgow this morning as the missus decided to treat herself to these:
