   was an optional extra iirc
   
   easy way to check is look at your master cylender if its 4 port its non abs
   if it has 2 ports then it has the abs extra

    i said they dont have them as STANDARD, it would not be completely standard if it was an optional extra.

    right i think we've came to the conclusion that only standard vts's came with abs and other models might have it just look at your master cylinder, convo over lol Ross1308 just look and get back to us lol

    just like the VTR's itsan optional extra, but not that many people got it because it was expensive... luckily the 1st owner of mine wasnt tight when buying the car... didnt do me any favours when my abs failed and i had to get new sensors!

    After having a conversation with a guy in a motor factors it looks as though the furio was citroen's effort to get rid of parts that were lying around, for example mine has vented discs and his Mum's had solid discs so there's not much commonality.

    was gunna ask this earlier....met a fox in the middle of the road last night whilst doing about 50mph on a national speed limit lane, and erm...well slammed on the brakes and it skidded like fuck and back end went out, luckily the wheel hit a very soft muddy verge and the back end went out the other side and i controlled it, if it wasnt for the verge i would have lost the back end into a bush
