2005 S Type R, it has all the toys, dual zone climate, bluetooth, electric seats, auto dimming rear view and door mirrors, so on so on. But, it doesnt seem to have parking sensors, not even rear, which is strange, considering it has toys costing considerably more to fit.
Looking through the handbook, i cant seem to find any way of working out whether it should have without removing the rear bumper and looking for wires.
Any ideas?
Cheers!

If it has it you will have these little disc shaped sensors on the bumper. (Pic taken of an 08 S on the lot). From what I can see it was not standard in 05 even on the R.

I have the disks, but they are colour coded. Does that mean its a no?

Those discs are the parking sensors. If you have them they should work. Has the bumper been repaired? Sometimes idiot paint shops spray over them...........

Thats the back.

And thats the front.
I know for definate that it doesnt have fronts, as the manual states that it would have a control module in the roof lining.
Very strange. It would be nice to have parking sensors.
