1895 for front and 1287 for rear are definitely correct for 24v saloon. Don't see why the estate would be different.

Did mine last week for MOT and that is what I used.

Check the Mintex online catalogue : https://mintex.com/online-catalogue/?lang=en-gbr
There seems to be more than 1 style of brake pad.
Cossie should have 278mm front discs & 273mm rears, everything else 260mm front & 252mm rear.

I have been asked when buying a front caliper for my 2.3 to confirm the caliper make, so maybe different calipers were used?
Looking at the mintex catalogue they show one front pad with a hump on the top edge MDB1620
& one without MDB1895.
Mine (2.3) has the hump on them.

I used EBC complete disk/pad sets last time.

Looks like later cars had different pads/calipers on the front but of course your calipers may have been changed for the other type at some time.

1097768 Kit - Front Caliper Brake Pad Standard Type from 10.10.1994, to 31.12.1997, Cosworth 2.9 V6

1095202 Kit - Front Caliper Brake Pad Standard Type from 01.12.1997, to 31.07.1998, Cosworth 2.9 V6

Rear pads appear to be the same across the range & years.
