Ok, so I'm going from GU10 Halogen to a bulb similar to this.

Not a GU10 LED, it is rated for 110V - 240V, I'm now thinking I may need a transformer for the bulbs, is that right?
Bernhard-
No, it runs on mains AC.

That one is designed for a lamp holder, i.e. a table lamp or similar, or a ceiling rose with the appropriate pendant. I thought you were fitting flush ceiling lights?
110-240v means it can cope with mains voltage (and in more than one country). Our mains voltage is 240v so it doesn't require a transformer.

Yes, that's the one. The transformer is usually contained in the GU10 bulb body so yes, you should lose the transformer.
