Caliper render for this kit:
The Volkswagen Caddy carries most of its mass over the front axle, and as a working van that means the front brakes do the hard labour: hauling a loaded panel van, a micro-camper conversion, or a Maxi long-wheelbase down from motorway speed again and again. The XYZ Racing front big brake kit for the Volkswagen Caddy (2010-2015) swaps the standard front setup for bigger, more thermally capable hardware that shrugs off the fade a hard-used Caddy will eventually find.
Built on the Golf Mk5-era PQ35 floorpan, the Caddy left the factory with commercial-spec brakes rather than performance ones. This front kit closes that gap, handing back a firmer pedal and repeatable stopping power, exactly what a van that tows, runs at payload, or doubles as a weekend camper actually wants.
What this brake kit does for your 2010-2015 Volkswagen Caddy
Three pad compounds, Street, Sport and Racing, let you match the kit to how your Caddy earns its keep. A high-mileage courier van wants the Street compound for clean cold bite and low dust; a Caddy that tows a trailer or carries tools all day leans on the Sport or Racing compound to stay sharp once heat soaks in. Either way you get a more reassuring pedal under a full load, less fade on long descents, and shorter, more predictable stops when the van is heavy. The larger two-piece floating disc carries more thermal mass, which is what holds the bite together once a hard-worked front axle starts building heat.
About the Hollow Front Brake Kit
This is a front-axle big brake kit aimed squarely at the wheel doing the most work on a nose-heavy front-driver like the Caddy. Rather than chase outright lap pace, it targets thermal headroom: a larger two-piece floating front disc and a fixed caliper that hold their bite when a standard van setup would have started to go soft. The caliper is a hollow body as standard, with an optional Hollow Racing version rated to 1000C, a two-year warranty and no dust cover for the hardest-worked builds. The friction package is configurable through the three pad compounds, so the same hardware suits a daily commercial Caddy, a towing workhorse, or a faster fast-road build. Discs come drilled or slotted at the same price, and caliper finish is specified separately when you order, keeping the cosmetic choice independent of the braking spec you actually need.
Fitment for the Volkswagen Caddy (2010-2015)
This kit is the front-position fitment for the Volkswagen Caddy across the 2010 to 2015 model years, supplied as a pair of front corners. It addresses the front axle only; confirm your exact build year falls inside that 2010-2015 span before ordering, then choose pad compound and caliper colour to suit your use.

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.
