DONT use EBC.
Mintex own Ferodo which is their luxury brand. Can I ask why? The only discs and pads I can see for my DB7 are EBC. Are they that bad that you would avoid using them at all? TIA PS - Tried to PM you but you are over the limit. Don't know what that means. I have my own reasons why I don't use them. If I was you, I would speak to http://davidapplebyengineering.comThey use Performance Friction, which is a very good make.

2011 +4 is Mintex MLB52 Should be able to cross reference easily
BTW I wouldn't touch EBC with a bargepole. Everytime Ive had anything to do with them, they've been given the float test.
(find the largest body of water you can, throw the pads in, if they float you keep them...)
Simon @ SiFab.co.uk Many thanks for all your input to this topic. Although I concluded that Mintex seemed to be a favoured manufacturer, I then consulted their catalogue only to find that a fitment for a 2011 Morgan was not actually listed. Since been in correspondence with (very helpful) Mintex and it appears that MLB52 has not got a R90 approval for Morgan and so cannot be legally listed. What a minefield EU legislation has created! I guess there are lots of people using them though, without issues?

Quite apart from the different quality impressions that are communicated here, my Greenstuff pads are nearing the end after 80,000 km. I was very satisfied with them. Does anyone know the type number for my 2014 4/4 so I can order these brake pads somewhere? I would greatly appreciate any info.

DP2243 fits a plus 4 so guess 4/4 is the same. you could order direct from ebc or ebay.

Thank you very much, Deejay. Just in case the Greenstuff is not directly available do you guys also know which Mintex or Ferodo number I would need for my 2014 4/4?
