Caliper render for this kit:

The S210’s reputation was built on a particular kind of competence: an executive estate that crossed continents in comfort while the 3.2-litre six kept pace with faster metal, carrying whatever the week demanded in the boot. The factory braking specification was sized for that brief, long-distance comfort rather than repeated hard stops. For owners running these wagons with more ambition than the standard setup was designed to handle, the front axle is where the gap between intent and hardware becomes most obvious.
The XYZ Racing front brake kit addresses that gap directly for the Mercedes Benz E CLASS S210 E 320 WAGON built between 1995 and 2003. It is a pair of larger calipers and discs for the leading axle. Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, mean the kit can be configured for daily use through a refreshed specification, fast-road work, or genuine pedal consistency under sustained thermal stress. You set it when you order from the options above.
What this brake kit does for your 1995-2003 Mercedes Benz E CLASS S210 E 320 WAGON
The S210 estate body adds mass over the W210 saloon, longer structure, reinforced loadspace floor, heavier tailgate, and that weight concentrates through the front axle under hard braking. The hollow-vane disc vents air through the rotor body to manage the resulting heat more effectively than the solid discs fitted as standard to cars of this era, which matters when the six-cylinder has built the speed it comfortably builds. Street suits improved, quiet, low-dust everyday performance; Sport moves the bias toward response and fade resistance on fast roads; Racing targets predictable pedal feel under repeated high-load stops.
The lighter two-piece floating disc also trims rotating and unsprung mass at the front corners. Discs are available drilled or slotted at the same price.
About the XYZ Racing Front Brake Kit
The kit uses two-piece floating disc construction to draw heat away from the friction surface more efficiently than a solid equivalent, reducing the fade that progressively affects original-specification setups on demanding roads. The hollow-vane rotor vents through the disc body, and the caliper is hollow-body forged as standard, fed by braided lines for a firm pedal. The three pad compounds represent a genuine escalation in intent: Street delivers quiet, low-dust improvement over worn originals, Sport adds fade resistance for drivers who use the 3.2-litre’s output with regularity, and Racing targets heat stability under conditions that would overwhelm a road-biased compound.
Included caliper colours are Red, Yellow, Gold, Black and Anodized Black at no extra cost, with Custom Color matching any Pantone for 150 pounds. Premium polished-forged finishes cover Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver, and the candy range adds Candy Teal, Candy Blue, Candy Red and Candy Orange. Centre bells can be two-tone in five anodized colours or titanium, and the optional Hollow Racing caliper, rated to 1000C with no dust cover and a two-year warranty, suits serious track use. For a car now into its third decade on UK roads, this kit functions as both a mechanical upgrade and a systematic refresh of one of the most load-bearing components on the car.
Fitment for the Mercedes Benz E CLASS S210 E 320 WAGON (1995-2003)

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.
