Offer him £400 for it then :lol:

I'd say £500 tops, but then i'm a tight fist, would be worth the asking price if it was a less door.

Thats been ebayed at least twice.
Might take a low offer.

Go and give it a look over if youre close.

Pics are not to be trusted. Youve gotta poke it with a screwdriver for the truth.

hi

i would just offer him 375.00 as it has good millage, but if all it got was 400. and the buyer pulled out must be something wrong....

i think 400. tops is a good price as there is no good money in cars at the moment..

cheers

mainly rust

wheel arches, tops of doors. suspension cups,

can get expensive when trying to find new doors.

Yes, where the spring sits. If these go while driving, then an accident will occur. It'll be as if the spring wasn't there. You can get whole struts second hand from breakers, or people on here, you can also get new spring cups too (they need to be welded in). Cant remember where off the top of my head though. A lot of the parts for more recent 300 series volvos are obtainable second hand, you just need to look. :)

Hadrian panels I just chopped off a perfectly good pair last night lol.
I don't need them but they don't seem re-usable once they've been on!
