Caliper render for this kit:
The 7L Touareg in W12 form is a heavyweight in every sense: the thick end of two and a half tonnes, a 6.0-litre twelve-cylinder slung over the front axle, and the autobahn pace to match. All that mass has to be hauled down by the front brakes again and again, and the standard setup on a 2005-2010 car was specified for hushed refinement first and sustained heat second. Repeated hard stops from speed are exactly where it starts to go soft underfoot.
The XYZ Racing Hollow Front Brake Kit for the Volkswagen Touareg 6.0 V12 is built to absorb that heat. Bigger two-piece floating discs, a stiffer caliper and a choice of pad compound give the front axle the thermal headroom a car this heavy genuinely needs, whether the duty is towing, long fast miles, or simply a pedal that stays firm at the bottom of a long descent. It is supplied as a matched pair of left and right front corners.
What this brake kit does for your 2005-2010 Volkswagen Touareg 6.0 V12
Fit this kit to the front axle and the first thing you feel is a pedal that keeps its bite where the standard car would already be fading. The larger rotor and rigid caliper increase swept area and thermal mass working against the W12’s weight, so heat builds more slowly and sheds faster between stops. The two-piece floating disc with hollow-vane cooling trims rotating and unsprung mass at each front corner, which sharpens turn-in and helps the dampers keep that heavy nose settled. With Street, Sport and Racing pad compounds on offer, you can match friction and bite point to how the Touareg actually gets used, from quiet, low-dust road manners to a pad that shrugs off back-to-back high-speed stops. The payoff is shorter, more repeatable braking and real confidence carrying a loaded car into a roundabout or a motorway slip.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
XYZ Racing builds this as a front-axle big brake upgrade rather than a like-for-like replacement. The caliper is hollow-bodied as standard, a stiffer structure that resists flex and keeps pad contact even and predictable under load, while shaving weight off the wheel-end where mass penalises both handling and braking hardest. The two-piece floating disc clears gas and water from the pad face through its venting and can be specified drilled or slotted at the same price. Three pad compounds cover the spread of use: Street for refined road driving, Sport for harder fast-road work, and Racing for track days and sustained high-temperature duty. Calipers are finished in your choice of Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with a Custom Color in any Pantone, premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, and candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange as upgrades, plus a Hollow Racing caliper rated to 1000C with a two-year warranty for serious track use.
Fitment for the Volkswagen Touareg 6.0 V12 (2005-2010)
This kit is specified for the 6.0 V12 (W12) Touareg on the 7L platform, covering the 2005 to 2010 model years. It is a front-axle fitment built around the W12 car’s hub and wheel package. Confirm your wheel diameter and chassis details before ordering, as a big brake upgrade of this size needs adequate clearance behind the front wheels. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and centre bells can be upgraded to two-tone in five anodized colours or titanium at checkout.

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.
