Can confirm cheap brake pads are sh!t.
Chucked some £7 quid cheapys in the MK4 to keep it going til 312mm set up and nearly died the other day as they got hot and stopped working.

Standing on the pedal and nothing.
Absolutely nothing like the Pagid pads in there before.
Delphi are good and Brads prices even better, take his offer
You won't regret it.
