I second the Pagid discs and pads as a personal choice (don't change the discs and not the pads). However, Blueprint, BREMBO and Meyle are also an excellent choice. Everyone used to rave about Mintex, but in personal experience on an MG TF they seem to have gone downhill over the years.

Of course, the ultimates are genuine Volvo. Looking back at the service history on mine, a set of genuine Volvo front discs and pads were fitted at 116K miles (by a Volvo dealer) just before I bought the car. I'm now on 153K and I'm just getting to the stage where pads could do with changing, but the discs will last another set of pads because there is virtually no lip on them.
