Something bog standard will do fine, should I stick with either Bosch or Pagid?
Any one made a similar purchase recently and if so where from?

Pagid are owned by an Indian outfit quality taken a hit
Might stick with Bosch then, thanks for the info.

No complaints from me. The only slight issue was that the provided disc retaining screw with the discs was the wrong size. Not a bit issue as I just reused the old one.

I put on Brembo discs and pads in January. I think they were about £90 all in using a discount code from eurocarparts.

Nice one, sorta info I was looking, many thanks :happy2:

Pagid is owned by a Japanese company btw, not Indian. Not necessarily a bad thing. Silent partner ownership may change but the production facilities and technology doesn't change.

The OEM brand is TRW iirc. They might be available on ECP etc without the dealer tax.

I’ve got a set of calipers from my old car knocking around in the garage if you’re interested (S3 8V calipers), one of the best upgrades I did to my car
340mm brakes were much better than the existing 312mm set up as standard
