Depends what size you want, its not advisable to have better disks on the rear than the front
Camberly Auto Factors got me a lovely set of grooved, drilled AND vented front disks for 100 quid, not sure if they will do rear though as i still have drummage

To be fair the drum brakes are more than up to the job of stopping a little Fiesta as the back brakes on a FWD car only do about 10% of the overall braking.
You need to ascertain what your rear discs and callipers are off as they could be off any number of Fords (RS2k, 130XR3i/Si, Cossie, Focus). Before you know what you have it's not really possible to offer advise on what to get

Never argue with an idiot. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience
