How can i check which brake pads will fit my Xantia Exclusive 2.0 HDI.1999 v reg.

I need to order some but obviously i do not want the wrong ones to turn up as per usual with most places.

Any hints or tips.
Vin number is as follows if anyone has the capabilities of checking for me please.

Simply order the largest size available for a Xantia IIRC 288mm

Your HDi has the same brakes as TD and V6 (and probably Ph2 TCT/Activa too), ie. 288mm front discs.

I highly recommend Ferodo Premier pads: FDB1114 / FDB615 (front/rear). They are a bit more expensive than their oem replacement pads (FSL1114 / FSL615) though. I've ordered mine from http://www.rockauto.com.
