Default [V70R AWD] Rear nivomats + Fr and Rr springs

Hi

I'm looking for a complete set of spring for my V70, and a pair of Nivomats for AWD version
All coming from a V70R AWD (lowered version of V70) in good condition.

TME springs acceptable also.

You will need to be able to send it to France.

Thanks!

I have a pair of Nivomat rear coil springs. They came off my 1997 V70R (FWD). I believe they are the same, though will need confirmation

thank you for your offer, but I would prefer AWD version, as it seems to be different partnumber.

You are correct- as somebody who has recently imported a pair if AWD Nivos I can confirm they are a different ( shorter as well I believe ) fitting.

So in short they are are different part number as they are ....... different

I've got a spare pair of rear nivos off a 98 V70R AWD, no other suspension bits though.

Are they working well? What could be the price?

Then, it is still available brand new on Viva Performance.
So if they are not working, I know where to take them

They are available from a number of outlets in the uk but your guess is spot on - I ordered mine from Viva. I have the advantage of being able to import from USA free of import duty and VAT - in the U.K. this adds 30% to the price so beware !

I replaced mine with new ones on the basis I hope my R keeps going for 3+ years and given they will do approx 5000 miles a year I would not be letting them go for under 300 quid when that sad day comes.

It's hard to say to be honest, it was a scrap car they came off but I can say that the boot was full of junk yet the car remained nice and level. I can say that the rubber boots are torn.

Price? No idea, what do you think?
Obviously I can provide you with some pictures if you wish.

Sounds like they have probably done considerable miles, but so long as no fluid is leaking let me start the bidding at £100 plus courier !!!! ????

If you had been posting these for sale 6 months ago that would have been my offer instead of buying new !
