Default Steering BOX

We've had this conversation before. I think that Nick makes an
excellent point: setting up any brakes is a big part of it. I found
that on the 406 the Dunlop discs were just splendid. With the
booster, capable to lock up the wheels with one aboard. Even the
drums on my early 405, with Alfins, are pretty good, and Sebastian
has just added a booster, so should be even better now. I suspect
the Dunlops on the 406 Zagato will do more than you ask. We'll know
in earlt=y 2010, hopefully.

Best. Sean

ps: Interesting that 40% of the Bristol Zagato 406 models are on the
market now. Never before
