£115 is the same price as pvd says for those discs you say, if its listed as 1.2 sxi then you dont need new callipers...

vented are 15 quid dearer, but you'd need abs/sri callipers to go with it, vented discs help in cooling the discs to help stop brake fade.

sxi's without abs are just solid discs, you can get combi's that are solid, just isnt quite as thick or vented

*confused now*
