Anyone know of a stockist of "ATE 325 mm" discs - ones that are just the "rotor" bit/fit on to aluminium bell housings, as per..

As you are just after the rotor, you dont have to get the ATE brand. So long as you get the correct width and dia.

True, but I was told by the previous owner that fitted the things that they were "off the shelf ATE discs"
I have my doubts as I've never come across such things let alone anyone how stocked them.
I'll have to get the tools out and work out the PCD too, unless I cheat and go to the local "brake expert" and see what they say.

You dont need to know the PCD, the disc you are after fits to the bell (notice the bolts joining them).

Just get the width and diameter of the disc, and there you go.

That's wrong, you do need to know the pcd and number of bolts joining the rotor to the bell. You also need to check whether the bell is recessed into the rotor, if so the depth and diameter of the recess will need to be matched too.
