Cannot STAND VW brakes!
Designed precisely to make people think "omg these are amazing", but when it actually comes down to it, are shit! They do everything in the first 5mm of pedal travel, then when you press past that, there's not much more! I think it's what makes VW/Audi cocks drive 4mm from the bootlid of another car "my brakes are amazing so I can drive closer" bullshit.
Best brakes I've ever used in terms of confidence inspiring are the ones on my old GTI6, decent OEM Bosch pads, good discs along with the fact it had the late p3 ABS/EBD system. Weren't ridiculously sharp, but when you got into them they had some real nice feel.
