I was thinking the same thing. When I went to get a roadworthy on my 411, the tester commented to me verbally that the discs were a bit on the thin side, but that wasn't a failure point.

Personally I believe original braking performance on the 411 is adequate providing the system is in good working order.

The main concern if a car has been standing for a long period of time is rust on the skirt of the caliper pistons.
