Hi I have a Brembo setup on a Giulietta I have priced up some front pads and disks in GSF and a website I found.
They are by Ridex and priced at £70 for 4 pads and X2 front disks. I have been unable to find reviews. I assume they are rubbish? At half the price is it something even worth considering?

Always go for a known brand in my opinion. It is brakes, when you need them, you need to be able to be suue of them.
From the screenshots, I'm guessing you're shopping on Autodoc.
These Ridex pads seem to have taken over from their STARKK brand which was their own brand. I was looking at pads for my Peugeot 3008 which I'm getting rid of and saw the pads for £15 for the pair, so I'm going to buy them and put them on.
Thing to remember though is if you're keeping the car long term then you should go for something a bit more well known. These pads are probably alright as, at the very least, they have to adhere to EU standards otherwise they wouldn't be able to sell them in the first place. So they'll stop your car no problem, how long they last though is anyones guess.

I need to renew front and rear disc and pads on a 2001 Polo 1.4 Tdi for the MOT, seeing as I am planing on selling the car soon after for only about £500 at the most tempted to just fit these brand.
