Welcome.

Discs in european cars tend to be soft. After 70K kms I'd be thinking about new rotors.

You can upgrade to larger brakes, a few of us are running 312mm over the stock 280/288 discs. Its a good upgrade as it gives better bite, but really its preperation for track driving.

For the upgrade you need callipers, carriers, pads and rotors. If you can pick up a set of callipers / carriers from the Classifides section, expect a set of pads and rotors to set you back another few hundred, plus bleeding the brakes and install.
