They lasted two years/30K and were then so worn as to drone when hot- I couldn't have got more wear out of them. The 1mm wear is I believe correct!!! Probably did that in 12 months with no track use and Ferrodo DS2500 pads (the best IMHO).
I paid £360 for my kit second hand off this forum many years ago.
The cost of replacement consumables is nuts and I couldn't live with it anymore!

Hi the standard maximum wear on a Volvo disc is 3mm i believe, that is why a lot of us run or are going to run Brembo 4 pots with Volvo discs,
I am currently making up and sourcing parts for a Brembo set up that will use the 302mm discs, instead of the costly 330mm discs, i know all about the heat dissapation but have found a smaller caliper that will work fine on the 302's, watch this space,
