^^^ Why make life hard for yourself? Just pull the engine out, it's easier than removing the drivetrain trust me.

Re: volvo 360 2.0

We're in possibly the worst recession in living memory. Is anyone actually shocked that you can't swap a thirsty, awkward-looking technological throwback for the price of a twelvety inch plasma telly?? It's a buyer's market, either accept that and get what you can, or keep it until prices recover (i...

Re: Speedy88's Green 360 GLS

Speedy, the torque tube is fighting you because the splines at the front end are engaged in the clutch centre plate, and the tip of the prop is in the spigot bearing. Is there a specific reason you want to separate the TT from the engine? I'd put money on the fault being the coupling between the pro...

Re: Swapping my turbo 340 :)!!!!

Can I just ask OP, what's the big attraction to the 1.7? It's in the same tax band as the 2.0 360 and not as powerful, and it has a chocolate propshaft. You'll be waiting a long, long time for a 3dr 1.7, perhaps you should give some indication of how much cash you want for your 120hp 340.

Possibly mate, I still have the tank from my 343 so I'll check the sender type and get back to you.

Oh and didn't you want a rear bumper in black? I still have the one with the towbar attached, and it can be seperated.

Re: Collection of big mechanical bits for 300s

OK people, apologies for not checking in for a while, I didn't think anyone wanted to buy anything. I currently have NO spare diffs or gearboxes, a shame as they appear to be in great demand! I have things like: Fuel tanks, Bonnets, Rear axles, Wheels (roadwheels and steering wheels), Steering colum...

Re: Another from Macs used car lot.

Hi Mac.

I'd absolutely love this, but I need a car with a towbar. You wouldn't happen to have a bar in your parts stash would you? Or know where I could get one very soon?

Cheers,
John.
