Default Whats the best all round brake pads?

Its for a MY01 bug.I dont do any trackdays with this car,but would like some decent pads that grip well without needing to be warmed up,and can suit fast road use.

Any ideas?

Pagid RS4.2-1, Ferodo DS2500 and Mintex 1155 are the famous, the choice is yours, personally I prefer the Ferodo as disc friendly and cold performance but Pagid have higher friction coefficient and I was very pleased with the Mintex on my MY00.

Pagids probs over the top for road use, 1155s too hard. Ferodos are a good choice but expensive, I'd try Mintex 1144. Excellent when cold and i've run them semi-hard on track with no issues.
