Anyone recognise them?
I will send a photo to ESM and askthem if they sell rebuild kits.
Looks like a ford vented disc kit to me. As you say ESM should be able to help you refurbish it.
If, on the other hand Phil is correct, then I have posted a link to the post he was referring to below.
Best wishes,
Mike.

If the stone guards have the two strengthening dimples then in all probability they are ESM sourced items.
If the stone guards do not have the strengthening dimples then in all probability they are sourced from yateschevy@btinternet.com.
Here is the ESM Ford based kit for comparison:-

This is all great stuff - many thanks chaps.
I really appreciate all the helpful advice I have been given.
No doubt there will be many other topics that I will need advice on. So- should I keep posting in this sub-forum or should I divert to the technical ones?

Always a difficult choice. I think most people probably look at the [New Posts] tab to see what's happening, which picks up the latest from all sub forums.
It may help some people if Electrical issues were in Electrical for example, but so long as it's not totally wrong, like discussing Tea Bags in [General] when they should be [Off Topic], it's not going to rock the boat too much.

90% sure that those discs and callipers are Ford Ka

I have the eBay kit sitting in my loft waiting to fir (or not?) and the components look identical.

Great; thanks Grumpy21.

Not the first time that Ka has been mentioned, even by our local back-garden crow.

Now to find stainless pistons; the exposed bits look a tad rusty.
