Question re: brake pad retaining clips
I just obtained a set of brake parts, front and rear, calipers pads and rotors, from a 2013 Clubman S with which to perform a 'poor man's JCW upgrade' to my 2004 MCS. In examining the parts it appears that Mini dispensed with the 'mustache shaped' pad retaining spring clips used on mine. True? TIA.
