its a 5 door front damage they were taking the seats out as there full leather to clean them up to sell

rear brakes are all there but some one had the calipers was gonna have them but the calipers are expensive and had new rear disks on mine so wasnt really worth the agro

nothing much else on there that is diffrent then other mk 4s apart from engine thats still there but is still sorta complete

thought the v5 only had the normal brakes? :undecided: thought it was just the v6 with 312??

could be wrong  :grin:

170bhp engined V5s have the 312mm fronts and 256mm rears

Still looking for some 256mm rears myself, don't care if they come off the V5, V6, vRS etc :laugh:
