Default Brake Pad Average Mileage on vRS?

A quick search didn't provide easy to spot answer to this question, so could I ask how many miles all you punters with TFSI vRSes got out of the first set of OEM brake pads? Please also state your driving style (OAP/Average/BRISKodian ;-)

Mine have done 23k and look and feel ok still... perhaps noticing that they don't feel quite as reassuring as usual on occasion. Just pondering on getting some ordered for fitting at my 2nd service (variable) which should be in around 3k miles.

Thanks guys.

You are doing well.

I used 7 sets of rears, 6 sets of fronts. It was stage 2 revo however, and it was used hard.
