You sed might be 286mm discs ray.. I got a feeling 283 is G H reg cars and possibly J and then the caliper changed to a curved parking brake lever and larger discs..

I could be wrong though.

I just bought them for the sake of buying them, I'm sure you'll be able to tell me what discs I have fitted etc 👍👍👍

I'm sure this information exists elsewhere on the forum and is repeated here.

XM models have used three types of front disc (and matching calipers + pads) with the majority of models using the 283mm diameter ones.

Early XMs up to RP5228 used 276mm diam x 22mm thick discs
From RP 5229 onwards discs were 283mm diam x 26mm thick
Some later V6 and 2.5TD models used the largest disc at 288mm diam x 28mm thick. The change for both models was made from RP7476.
