Not much in it really, I had Ferodos and they were fine; other people had them disintegrate. It does appear to be luck of the draw when it comes to the Ferodos. As it's a light car (and I seem to remember EBC have just changed their compound for the better?) I'd go with the green stuff personally.

Brembo discs I also ran without issue.

Discs I would get the cheap ones from buypartsby, about £11 each and then spend the saved money on decent pads like Mintex M11144, M1155 or the Ferodo DS2500. I have used all 3 on different cars without issue, never heard of them wearing out in 600 miles - unless that is 600 track miles, in which case I guess it would happen. Get yourself some decent fluid too, I found ATE Super Blue from GSF to be very good for the money.
