Be an idea to ask the seller if they can include one of the old pads so you can match it up down the motor factors & make sure you get a matching pair of calipers of the same type

You already have GTI front brakes fitted as standard, 266mm x 22mm vented front discs.
there's nothing wrong with that set up on a 1.4, just fit Brembo discs & Ferodo Premier pads when the time comes.

Nope sorry, the Build code number at the time of change over will be on Peugeot Service box though.
Just had a look.
Up to build code RPO 09078 they used the 20.4mm thick vented discs.
From build code RPO 09079 they used the 22mm thick vented discs.

Build code will be on the information sticker stuck on the car.
Information sticker is on the passenger side suspension strut top for earler cars.
OR
Later cars the info sticker is on the B post, open the drivers door & you will see it.
You can always look the VIN number up on Peugeot Service box & that will also tell you what type of brakes are fitted.
PSA Peugeot / Citroen are one of the more helpful car companies for putting good information out there on the internet.
