Got one here from a 2000 facelift 2.5 Matt. I think it will be suitable,but might be best to ask advice before making a decision. ;)

Yep, front caliper is the same for all models from chassis No W1000001 on.  It's the non-V6 models prior to this that are different.

Bet the sliding sleeves in the carrier are seized too.

If you Elite an MV6, does that make it an MVee-leet?
