are these the same?. is it just the rears that are different?.

IIRC all V6's have the same 296mm front discs so as you say only 2.6 and 3.2 IIRC have the vented rears

All Omega fronts are the same exept very early 2,0 cars had smaller discs.

For rears V6 have two types, vented on 2,6/3,2 and solid ones on 2,5/3,0

Vented on my 2.6 MV6. ........and when I recently changed the rear pads I found that the new pins were too short. I had to clean and reuse the old pins. Worked out fine.

I disagree. My previous was 2,6 and MY2001 and had vented discs. All texts I have read about this point that it is engine that this depends on so all 2,6/3,2 are with vented and all 2,5/3,0 with solids. Can not see why VX would differ from Opel. But, as always, I may be wrong.
