somebody please help!
I own a 1987 340 DL (1.4 3-door) which is only 31000 miles old that has failed its MOT this week, needing a pair of front top strut mounts.
It's in great condition otherwise & has had only one owner other than me.
Does anyone have any top front strut mounts or know of any that I can buy? I've searched high & low now & neither me or my mechanic want to scrap the car for such a minor part shortage.
Cheers,
Malc

They are still available from the dealer for about £60 the pair. Its not worth messing around with s/h ones as most cars ones are actualy failing.
If your dealer will not get them let me know and I'll order some for you.

I spoke to my main Volvo dealer down here in Bournemouth & they could only offer to sell me a new or nearly new Volvo, agreeing to take my 340DL in part exchange. I thanked them for their kind offer & in return, I agreed to buy a new Volvo, providing the cost was the same as the parts I'd phoned for.
Following some silence, we both agreed that neither of us could help the other!
What's the name/tel number of your dealer that sounds more helpful??
