Correct! They are 3/8 UNC x 1. 3/4 long high tensile or 8.8 grade 5 (imperial bolts should have 3 embossed lines pointing to the centre of the head).
Just going to take off my anorak now

Then I would tap it m10 and buy some decent m10 bolts in 10.9. The normal standard automotive strength of suspension and brake bolts.

A VW vented disc? Very thin in that section unless you mean a spacer behind the disc?
