You are not strictly speaking limited by Caliper manufacturer. Lucas, Brembo and others market components to fit equipment that they did not make themselves. So long as you have the accurate information regarding year, model and series if appropriate you should find the GSF offerings very suitable for conventional motoring use.
It is when you try...

GSF advertise Bosch and brembo pads and disk etc , My Citroen xsara 2.0hdi estate old body has LUCAS calipers and pads and disks. SO what makes Can i fit? bearing in mind,that I belive xsara had 3 different types of caliper ,

You are going to have to take the front wheels off and have a look...you need to see how much material is left on the brake pads and how worn the discs are.
These cars wear their brake pads and discs out relatively quickly so its important that you look soon if you are getting metallic scraping sounds- have a look and let us know!

Appreciate an advise on how can I know whether my brake pads/discs needs changing, there is a space when i apply them before taking effect, and there is a sound on the last few inches, its like hard dry metal contact sound, my car is Xantia 1.9 TD, 1994, thank you.

It should be at least 12.5V after a run, and should not significantly decay over a week or so.

As they are bolted on they are quite straight forward. First remove the under wing protection.

When all the studs are out, the wing should come off with a little persuasion...
