My pads are in need of a change and the mechanic wants me to get the pads and they'll swap them round. DO i have to get any specific brake pads? Like do they have a special name or what

I think the cheapest bang for buck is Bendix Ultimate... I used those before EBC Red Stuff...

For normal driving, they are fine..

+1 on Bendix Ultimates for a daily drive.

EBC red stuff for more spirited driving.

Are you spirited enough to use the Red Stuff? Also they are not clean..they give out quite bit of dust. And price depends on where you are sourcing from.
