PPS - Replace the disk retaining nut (torx jobbie), about £3 each from AutoDoc if you can…previous owner reused mine and it stripped causing me to drill it out - which was a pain…

Really, that single disc to hub retaining bolt (not nut) is superfluous. Used on the production line to ensure the disc is still in place when the calipers and pads are fitted. In use, the wheel keeps the hub firmly against the disc. 5 x M14 bolts at a rather large torque, compared to what, an M8 bolt ? ! No need to use a special bolt at all.
