Thank you Aukki! Theres a fair few bits in there I hadnt seen before, and normally the catalogues don't have prices either! I can't believe that both the fader and 400 series tape holder I have here cost more than a snowcap!

Great brochure, thanks for sharing, aukki!

The prices for some accessories drive tears to your eyes ... Things like extra gauge panels and snowcaps were originally dirt cheap! The most expensive things were air con, body kit, Volvo sound system and pre-heating IIRC ...
