For rapid road use I've always liked the Ferodo ds2500's, they give good feel and progression.
In my limited experience of tracking they did go a bit squishy after a couple of laps (obviously a combination of things) so if this is what you're after I'm sure someone will be along with advice.

I don't do any tracking, just normal road usual use. Not looking for anything technical or something that would be over kill, just the standard pads.

I use the Ferodo DS2500 on the front- (FRP216H for the AP CP5200 calipers- early Tuscan and Cerbera) and standard ford pads on the rear- (UNIPART: GBP684AF- all late TVR's).

Ferodo ds2500 all round for me. Great pad which is well suited to the car.

Would that also do a Mk1 Tuscan S (bigger brakes)?
