Yours should be 8.4's I think Een , you've got 12" wheels haven't you ? The brochure doesn't say which discs but I'm sure by then they were all 8.4's .

After some searching, i agree. They're 12" wheels and i think cos of that they're 8.4's.

I think the Greenstuffs part # is DP2102.

Right, so bought the DP2102's (that SPECIFY Rover Mini on the box - see pic.) and they're wrong. :cry:

Can ANYONE tell me what pad i need by looking at the shape of the old one?

I have one in front of me that looks identical, and fits 8.4" mini callipers. Part number is DP2127 - says it fits Vauxhall Viva, TR7, Rover MG Midget / Mini

But I don't know what calipers you have sorry?

Edit - sorry just to clarify, the one in front of me (EBC) looks identical to your used one.

Thanx, guys. :)

Although the picture is wrong (it's the same picture for EVERY part on this page :roll:), the application info. here is correct - 1990 onwards Rover 1.3.

I'll try and swap the 2102's for 2127's.

no, they are all the same, maybe there was a change in factory part number, but no change was made to the part itself.

the pad with the holes is for the 7.5 disc
