Should be, i'll lift them off this weekend, pm me your number - the car is in stored in Larne, i could drop 'em in on the way home.

doc: Wheels are still with me.

Apologies to anyone I've missed, forgotten about etc, been a tough couple of weeks

dwb: if your still on here, one of the light units got a wee chip in it during storage - probably not worthwhile shipping to the states unless they were immaculate

Hi ovlov25

Many thanks for replying to my post.

I understand that you have had a couple of rough weeks.

I wonder if i could ask you a few more questions on the wheels:

1.)The Rims are solid with no chuncks or dents in the alloys
2.) The tyres are all legal ie have over 2mm of thread to pass an MOT
3.)The tyres have no punctures, Damage or derogation around the sidewalls
4.) 4 Wheels T5 850 style - 2 Goodyear Eagle and 2 Fedral.

Many thanks for you reply.

Best Regards

Paul

Hi Paul

Ah your only down the road!!

The rims could do with a refurb, they are by no means 'mint' but perfectly presentable considering they are 13 years old. They are however running 100% true and have no nasty gouges etc. Maybe a light spot of curbing or a few bits of flakey paint but otherwise as Volvo intended.

Tyres are 100% and the goodyears were only 3 months or so old at the time of breaking the car. Off the top of my head all tyres have 5mm or more tread - probably more. I also have the centre caps and the correct wheel bolts

I was looking of offers around £120 delivered, I was allowing £30 for carriage to the mainland so call it £90 and they can be yours. Has to be a cheap set of tyres at the very least! I'll give you the spare as well which is in very good condition, it'll need a tyre though

PM me if this is any use.

Hi Ovlov25

Could you send me a PM with your E-mail address on it, as the system won't let me send you a personal E-Mail to arrange a date and time to meet.

Best Regards

Paul

The car will be stripped over the next 10 days or so and what doesn't sell will be weighed in for scrap

I intend to strip the following before the car is scrapped, so shout now if you need something not on the list

16" alloys (Columba or Perfo I can't recall, doesn't work with the 302mm brakes) - 2x 205/50R16 Goodyear F1 GSD3 + 2x 205/50R16 Federal SS535
All tyres have loads of tread, the wheels would stand a refurb though. Open to offers around £120 delivered to UK.

Original 15G turbo with 146K and 1x ebay spare 15G with reported 97K
Will sell seperately but open to offers of £100 + delivery for both.

Koni FSD Dampers £100 + delivery

Eibach Springs - 854 or 855 variant available - possibly spoken for.

ABS ECU (no Tracs) - perfect order £50 + post

Rica 304 ECU - open to offers

6 month old genuine front ball joints - 2 bolt type control arm, £80 + post

Rear spoiler - red - £30 + post

Roof rails - only just bought these from another forum user - £25 + post

OE Strut brace - £50 delivered.

Front headlamp + wiper motors - reflectors in perfect nick - £25 a piece + post, ask for other lamp units

Towbar - £50, local pickup only!

Brembo easy check discs - new, standard size - £50 + post

Auto Gearbox - changing sweet as a nut - offers + £100 pallet delivery or local pickup.

Pm with best offers or if you need anything else. I'm just sort of making prices up based on what I've paid for bits - I'll try and not see anyone stuck though.

I'll happily remove other engine, drivetrain bits, interior etc if needed.

Hi
Do you have the jack and wheel brace? If so, could you give me a price delivered to England.
Thanks

Hi Duncan

Unfortunately I'm not selling those, too handy to keep in the garage.

[NI_Volvo_Nut]

I'm getting an 855 on Monday too MOT, I might be able too sell a door for you, drop you a text when I get the car / speak to the owner.

[ovlov25]

Wheels and tyres old.

Very nice dinner bought tonight with proceeds

Thats it folks, all the odds n ends remaining will be on Ebay in the next few days - what doesn't sell is getting chucked. I need the space!
