Drums are infact more complex and have more moving parts than a caliper which the only moving part is the piston and pads!The thing is and it makes no difference how many think otherwise, from a technical point of view the micra does NOT need rear disks. I can say this by having the March ST which even with around 150bhp and fully loaded the GTIR front calipers and disks would fade way before the rear drums would. You have to understand that the rear drums do their job on a K11 with no problems at all and when totally disregarding the fact that disks are more fashionable there are absoutely no advantages to fitting rear disks at all!
