I've never had any difficulty buying brakes for any of the V40s I've owned either, except one time the supplier got in a mess and gave me a VW caliper.

I don't bother with all the flash options. The way I figure it, if they're good enough to trigger the ABS, they're good enough full-stop. Anything more is a waste. For around £100, you can spend all day saturday under your car and know you've got real stopping power at the end of it. Just go budget, good enough.
