Oh dear, don't look like gen 2 probe rear discs
Mind you I stopped ordering from Germany, even with a reg number and after receiving a email saying if was the correct item, I was after (on the fiesta) when it arrived it was complete wrong, and I had a massive amount of problems get them to accept it was the wrong part, and even after I sent it back it took week to get my refund.

Brake discs are reasonable to buy, but I think the quality is a bit dodgy. Mine are only 15k since new in 2015 but they shudder which is to say they are warped.

Back when I did my apprenticeship Mawdsley's had a yard full of casting and forgings that weathered for a couple of years sometimes, plus a normalising oven to stress relive the welded fabrications before they were machined so you got no problems with warping later on. Quality British engineering that was lost to cheap far eastern copies, so do they stress relieve our discs? I very much doubt it. Throw away culture, I'm afraid, but I'd rather have the quality myself.

A positive rating from me for AUTOSESSIVE if you buy from there , a pair of Delph items are not expensive.
