So long as if you win one of the auctions, I can have the thing that is the same as the thing that has a bite out of it, if it's in good nick and you still don't want one ;) And 12 of the things I was gonna have of the donor off the thing with the bite in it!

What is auction? ;) Lol, just kidding here.

I think that I will never buy from ebay as it is not very popular in here Finland, I guess.

We have our own marketplace section at finnish Volvo forum, little time ago I was very unhappy to my money situation, because there was volvo Evo engine available. Also some other real high performance parts.

Currently there is two race engines available, one is 7000euros and other 8000euros. That evo engine was 23000euros, I hate to be poor.

With that 8000 euros you can get 275hp/327Nm near 2,6litre monster ;)

That evo has from 3.0litre NA 350hp/400nm

Daydreams :P

Ok Chris was going to buy the boot spoiler off of Nessy (If my memory serves me right ) which had a little lump out of it , the twelve items can only be twelve wheel nuts for alloy wheels ( I know there are sixteen but four are lock nuts ) Am I good at this detective work or what!!! .I just dont understand all the secrecy over stuff on EBAY ( there I said the evil word out loud ) sourcing cheap parts can only benefit all of us and if V3M members have anything to sell I am sure they would offer it on the forum first . If only I had somewhere to scrap that redline I would have bought it , Even with my ludicrusly low prices I couldnt have failed to make a profit out of it nuts and spoiler to Chris, interior to Aymat , FRONT BUMPER FOR ME, thats before you start on lights ,panels ,wheels and tyres etc the list just gos on and on. I need a yard and an A frame towing device and I need it NOW

mine's dark_rayven... I see only 1 360GLT alloy. If it were a whole set, I'd have it, since those are the squarish ones that I reckon would look ok on a mk.1.

Saw some 850 alloys a few days ago, not much good to us though, I think?
