It has to be a DOT 4 Class 6
The Pentosin DOT4 LV meets those specs.

Guys, I know I'm slow, but I just realised that some of the XFR owners here might be interested in these rotors (the XFR uses the exact same 380 mm and 376 mm rotors as the F-Type R) so I have posted a new thread over on the XF forum: https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/x...rs-xfr-200712/

Not so quick... To me it looks like the diameters may be the same but the rotor "hats" appear to have a different depth. Wortec would need to examine OEM examples to confirm fitment.

Hmmm, I moved the after-market rotors I had on the XFR over to the F-Type with zero fitment or operational problems, I'm 99% sure they are identical.

If that is the case, definetely let Wortec know as well as its only fair they get as many sales as possible for working with us to make this possible and not only that but turning it around so fast.

Gibbo, probably up to you to let Wortec know, although no response yet on the XF sub-forum despite 199 views!

Oz, let me know what the interest is over on the XF forum and I'll bring it to Wortec's attention.

Good news: Production starts next week. I just received the message below from Wortec:
​​​​​​
"Hello Gerard
I am pleased to confirm that we have received enough payments now and
will begin production next week.
Thank you again for your order, we will be in touch as soon as they are
ready to ship.
Have a great weekend
Kind regards
Anneliese"
