The ebay vendor describes these discs as "283 x 27.5 mm" and to fit "Citroen Xantia 1.8, 1.9TD, 2.0, 2.0HDi, 2.0 Turbo and 2.1TD 1998 on" i.e Xantia II

Xantia S1 Discs:

Discs
FRONT (Ventilated)
266 x 20.4 (thick) is fitted to most hatchbacks.
283 x 22 should be fitted to estates and higher power hatchbacks.
288 x 28 S1 - only V6. S2 - HDi 110 & V6, plus 2.0 CT & 2.1 TD after RP 8001.

REAR (Solid)
224 x 9 Hatchbacks
251 x 12 Estates
There are tales of 1.8 petrol hatchbacks built with 283 discs and estates with 266s. As calipers and pads are different
for each size of disc, check before reaching the point of no return!!

The short answer is "Almost certainly NO".

If the advert says clearly that the discs will fit your car and they don't,then they are surely not as described. As such, you would be entitled to back out of the deal. Just email the seller and tell him he has got it wrong and don't s
end the discs to you.

Just read the advert and it looks like he has all the bases covered. You can only hope he agrees to cancel the deal. I would be very wary of his gear at that price anyway. Brakes are not something to scrimp on. If something seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Can you not find a set of calipers and yokes from a scrapper on the forum? Then the new discs will fit.
