Hello All. Been lurking and reading through a lot of info on this wonderful car the last few weeks and after a lot of fiddling/fixing and service/MOT I finally have a shiny red sports car! Always adored sports cars and wanted one since I started driving (family needs put that out the window till now) and today I got mine at last! Only took 42 years! Absolutely adore the car, its beatiful and fun and everything I could have wanted in a car. And not as slow as some people make it out to be! Unfortunately by the time I got all the neccesary bits done (kids to bed, food, insurance etc.) its gotten too dark to get a good photo! So, that will come soon hopefully, need to make it a good one or it'll ruin the suspense of it lol. Thank you all of you who've posted and discussed and everything in between for all the information and learning that you've provided over the last couple of weeks of waiting on it. Look forward to mingling a bit!

There are no best pads in general. There might be many good pads for specific use. Track pads suck for daily driving, street pads soon run into limits on track. Hence won't advise to get any "real" track pads, unless squealing sound at every stoplight & enhanced rotor/pad wear (due almost never getting them upto optimal working temps they are intended to, thus wearing down bedded layer from rotors) & dusting is your thing. Initially i suggest to keep using stock pads you got "for free" till they wear down. I usually for DD use Ferrodo DS2500.

I’ve always used the Cosworth Streetmaster pads. They have plenty of bite from cold and are hard to overheat on track.
