Easy - cut some more off, until it's exactly half a ring, fill in the gaps, re-program the abs to work on one pulse per rev....

might be a tad out of balance tho.
2002 HDi 2.2 Exec Estate, (2008-12) (wonderful)
2003 HDi 2.2 6-speed Exec Estate (2012-19) (also a gem)
2009 Citroen C5 2.0 HDi VTR+ Estate (godawful heap)
2008 BMW E91 330i touring (great fun - murdered by a reversing SUV)
2007 BMW E91 325i touring (slower smoother quieter)

Update:

Got a kit: Rear brake discs, shoes and pads from Ebay for £55
A 48-tooth ABS ring for £11

So gonna whack all these on (May split the ABS ring and araldite it to hub??) and hope the ABS light goes out. If not, then the bulbs coming out for the MOT.... :shock:
