I have the Sports Pack brakes, cross-drilled disks and larger calipers. Rears are as standard I believe.

Cost? Calipers are ~£300 each and disks ~£100 each. and pads approx £140 per axle set for the fronts. The rears I have no idea.

I'm wondering why you wish to upgrade the the brakes, is it a cosmetic upgrade or is there a deficiency in the standard setup?

Hi,
They won,t sell you the items because they were not listed as equipment for your vehicle.
You could try using someone elses chassis number whose car has the brakes you want fitted as standard.
Or use the Russian website to identify the parts by number and go back to Mercedes and order it by Pt. number rather than chassis number.
You could always order genuine parts via Pt. No. from the Internet on the Inchcape Mercedes site.
