Yes.

You currently have 230 v fittings.

You may as well get 230 v fittings again, as anything less requires transformers which are prone to go wrong.

so a like for like replacement (wiring) using this product http://www.astrolighting.co.uk/products/bathroom-lighting/downlights/5621_Kamo-230v-fire-resistant

You could use that, but why are you looking at halogen as the replacement?
LED would be a better investment.

EDIT: also, check the size of the cut out. You dont want to get a fitting that is too small for those existing holes!

Sorry they are halogen to be replaced with LED

It's to replace R80's cut out hole is 100mm approx

There are lots more.

My favourite LED downlight is the Aurora M10. http://gb.auroralighting.com/Products/Indoor-Luminaires/Fire-Rated-Downlighting/mSeries/m10.aspx


They also sell a large hole adaptor for that

If you've already got large holes why not buy large lights to go in them?

How about this? Direct replacement for your sized hole....
