the ones i was looking at please if theres better ones steer me in the right direction thanks

Your better off with the pagid discs and pads rather than the drilled and grooved discs

Plus VRS's have vented rear discs not solid

Pagid rear discs and pads are £58.17 on euro car parts after discount. The labour seems quite expensive, should be closer to 1 hour than 2 I'd have thought?

Wouldn't bother with drilled/grooved discs.

No point in upgrading the rear discs and pads, your rear brakes only do something like 20% of the braking. I'd just stick with OEM ones or if the garage are offering you the Pagid ones for a good price go for them. I bought a set of Mintex discs and pads for mine for about £60 and fitted them myself, they do rust up a bit quicker than OEM ones after it's rained but you don't notice any difference in braking (i.e. they're no worse than the OEM ones). Full set of OEM discs and pads used to be about £80-90.
