No problem Chris! I'll keep them in a box safe and sound for you, might be down your way one day, or when you're passing.

Hello, haven't seen you about in a while, I'm 99% sure I know where one is that would be available soon. If you can hang on a little while longer! It's probably a 1984/5 from memory, which should be the same.

Hi, I do have one that someone else had wanted but in the end didn't need it. I could probably package it up so it was postable to make life easier.

Chris....... I've got all those 1.7 hoses for you, and I pulled the dizzy cap and leads as they, along with the rad are practically brand new. The cap is a brown one. Let me know if you want this little bundle!

How crazy is that!?! Service items are now being deleted! We get the hint, you don't want us to run these cars anymore, it really looks like it is time for a decent aftermarket parts manufacturer to get itself sorted and take on making the parts we need. I've managed to build up a decent amount of s...

I was going to say I'd seen and heard of 1.4's having had PAS added but not 1.7's, that explains that then! Mine on my vario was an aftermarket kit fitted at nearly new, costing nearly £1000 at the time!

I've got the moulds for the bodykit from the group buy, which when I find some time I will make one or two limited kits. A couple of people are on the list already who have asked nicely and shown an interest! Good work Jeroen, glad it's being saved, it looks to be a bit of work, but it will be worth...

Nice collection Aymat, they are an addictive habit! I only have 6 300's currently, I had to scrap two, and I've not added a 300 to the collection for a while, added 8's and 9's though, sticking in the Volvo theme. I have got the opportunity of a couple more, which I will probably get pretty soon. Te...

I saw an F reg 340 the other day that the front cup was well and truly rusted through at least half way round, it must've been showing at the MOT last year. Basically one speed bump a little bit too fast and that would have been through! The trouble is when it's someone that isn't mechanically minde...

The bloke RAC windscreens sent me was really good, he was a time served fitter who knew his stuff, apparently one of the other younger guys had decided not to come out as he had only worked bonded screens. I'd already explained the fact that the trim was not available from the dealer, should it be b...

Just to update everyone, sadly I couldn't get the gearbox and diff. Time was tight and it was already on the ground with no wheels when I got to it. I got what I could of any use otherwise. If anyone is ever desperate for a brand new throttle cable for a 1.7 then I have one! I'll keep my eyes open o...

Looks like it's coming along! You'll find your paint code on the VIN plate on the front rail under the bonnet above the grille. It's normally a three digit number from memory, I think there is a diagram in the user manual if you have one of what the information relates to. As for the window seal, as...

Good work Tom, sounds like you've been working hard to make progress! GLT door cards really are much better than the vinyl things that should go with the leather. I have a set, but I won't be fitting them to the GLT, the vario may get them instead, as the plush door cards don't match quite as well a...
