Fits Mercedes Benz V CLASS W447 (2014-2026)

Brake pad compound

Street: quiet, low-dust, strong cold bite for road driving. Sport: higher temperature range and more bite for fast road and occasional track. Racing: maximum fade resistance for sustained track use (noisier and dustier cold). Match the pad to how hard you actually brake.

Disc size

Caliper grade

Hollow is the standard caliper: a lighter hollow-body forged caliper with a dust cover and a 5-year warranty. Hollow Racing drops the dust cover for sustained high-temperature use (rated to 1000°C, 2-year warranty) — the track-grade choice.

Caliper colour

Painted colours are included. Polished-forged finishes are mirror-polished forged calipers (Titanium, Gold, Silver); candy colours are a deep, mirror-reflection paint. Both are premium upgrades — fuller detail further down the page.

Painted — includedTell us the exact Pantone (PMS) code you want the calipers painted.Polished forgedCandy
Disc style

Drilled discs (cross-drilled holes) vent gas and water and look aggressive; slotted discs (surface grooves) wipe the pad face clean and resist fade under sustained hard use. Same price — choose on looks or how you drive.

Centre bell

The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. Standard anodized is included; a two-tone bell adds an anodized accent ring in your choice of colour; titanium is the lightest, forged option.

Carbon-ceramic rotor

Carbon-ceramic rotors are a special-order track upgrade: far lighter than steel, fade-resistant at extreme temperatures and extremely long-lived. The price follows the disc size you choose above. The standard two-piece steel rotor is included.

XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit — Mercedes Benz V CLASS W447 (2014-2026) — 380 mm
380 mm

The W447 V Class presents an unusual braking challenge: a vehicle designed to feel lighter than its two-tonne-plus kerb weight, where the front axle handles steering and the majority of braking load at the same time. Mercedes calibrated the standard setup for smooth, progressive family and fleet use. Repeat the cycle of sustained motorway pace followed by firm stops, loaded to capacity, towing, or simply working the V Class as many owners do, and the front axle starts working harder than the factory accountants planned for.

The XYZ Racing front brake kit for the Mercedes Benz V Class W447 answers the thermal and mechanical demands of heavier-duty operation across the full 2014-2026 model run. It is a single-axle kit: a matched pair of front calipers and two-piece floating discs for the left and right corners. Three pad compounds let the same kit serve very different briefs, since a high-mileage airport-transfer vehicle is not the same proposition as a modified W447 on track days, and the compound choice reflects that.

What this brake kit does for your 2014-2026 Mercedes Benz V CLASS W447

Enlarged front braking hardware on the W447 raises the fade threshold, relevant whether you are descending Alpine passes with a full load or repeatedly stopping from motorway speeds in UK traffic. The hollow-vane disc improves heat dissipation at the front axle, the point of highest thermal concentration on a heavy vehicle under forward braking, and the two-piece floating disc on its alloy centre bell trims unsprung and rotating mass so the front end settles between stops. Street keeps the feel quiet, low-dust and linear for everyday cycling. Sport lifts bite and fade resistance for faster road use with a wider heat range. Racing is for owners pushing the vehicle into sustained high-cycle conditions. Braided stainless lines keep the pedal firm under repeated load, and the chosen caliper finish lets the build look considered rather than accidental through the spokes.

About the Front Brake Kit

XYZ Racing’s front brake kit centres on a hollow-vane disc, which changes thermal behaviour at the front axle, the location under greatest stress during any forward stop in a heavy vehicle. Three pad compounds are offered: Street for mixed-use and fleet operation, Sport for more demanding fast-road or repeated braking duty, Racing for track use or any application where sustained fade resistance is the priority. The forged caliper is hollow-bodied as standard, with painted finishes at no extra cost in Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, or Anodized Black, a Custom Color to any Pantone for £150, polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, and candy finishes in Teal, Blue, Red and Orange. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, two-tone centre bells in five anodized colours or titanium, and a Hollow Racing upgrade is available, dropping the dust cover, rated to 1000C with a two-year warranty for the heaviest sustained use.

Fitment for the Mercedes Benz V CLASS W447 (2014-2026)

This front big brake kit covers the Mercedes Benz V Class W447 from its 2014 introduction through to 2026, spanning the full current generation including standard, long, and extra-long wheelbase configurations. The W447 replaced the Viano and earlier Vito-based passenger van variants as Mercedes-Benz’s primary large MPV platform. Confirm your trim level and existing front wheel diameter before ordering to ensure clearance with the larger front caliper assembly.

Choosing your spec

Every kit is built to order around the choices you make above. Here is what each option actually changes, so you can spec yours with confidence.

Brake pads — Street, Sport or Racing

Every kit ships with a full set of high-performance pads; the compound is your call.

Street is the right default for fast-road driving — a strong, progressive cold bite with low noise, low dust and long disc life. Sport raises the working temperature and adds bite and fade resistance for hard road use and the occasional track day, while still behaving on a cold morning. Racing is a track compound built for sustained abuse: huge fade resistance and bite once heat is in it, at the cost of more noise and dust when cold. Match the pad to how hard you actually use the brakes — there is no benefit to a race pad that never gets up to temperature.

Caliper grade — Hollow vs Hollow Racing

Hollow is the standard caliper on every kit: a hollow-body forged caliper, lighter than a solid one, fitted with a dust cover and backed by a 5-year oil-leak warranty. For most fast-road and spirited track use it is all the caliper you need.

Hollow Racing is the track-grade upgrade. It runs the same hollow body but without a dust cover (so there is nothing to melt at sustained high temperature), uses a twin-metal piston that isolates heat travelling from the disc to the oil seal, and is rated to 1000°C. Available 286–380mm (front). Warranty is 2 years on oil leaks and 10 years on appearance. Built for professional racing and repeated track days.

Caliper colour & finish

Painted colours (Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, Anodized Black) are included at no cost. Want an exact match to your car? Custom Color (+£150) paints the calipers to any Pantone code you supply (15–20 day lead time).

Polished Forged finishes are the flagship: a forged caliper given a mirror-polished surface treatment that shifts colour with the viewing angle. Beyond the looks, the polished surface dissipates heat better, resists rust and stands up to the weather. Choose Titanium (neochrome, +£350), Polished Gold (+£300) or Polished Silver (+£250). They look their best paired with a titanium centre bell. Care: clean only with a dilute neutral cleaner or water.

Candy colours (+£200) use a deep candy-paint and polishing process for a mirror-reflection, boutique finish — pick Teal, Blue, Red or Orange (shown below right).

Centre bells

The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. The standard anodized centre bell is included. The Two-tone bell (+£200) adds an anodized accent ring — choose Red, Yellow, Orange, Purple or Silver right here at checkout. The Titanium centre bell (+£500) is a forged titanium bell (bolts not included) that finishes off the polished-forged look.
