Volvo 121, 4 DOORS needed london uk

grantbennett2 · Mar 15th, 2005, 19:10

Hello all, I have just returned to Amazon ownership after 6 years!
I have found a good sound 121 Automatic with good body apart from the doors. I need all four, they should be hole free and sound. Colour isnt a problem as the wings dont match the body anyway. I am in London

ANY DOORS OUT THERE!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately, I can't help with the doors, but out of interest, would the car be the one that was on eBay recently (seller in Dulwich)?

Yes that is correct. Have had a good poke about and cleaned about a ton of mud from the underside. Gave it a good t-cut and it dives fine, auto seems a bit slow to change up when cold but i think i need to get used to the car. Can anyone tell me why when so many parts are re-manufactured for these cars the parts prices are so high when ones for morris minors are not?? I also need some door mounted wing mirrors!!

I don't understand the high prices either. Out of the 667,000 Amazons produced, a good percentage of them are still on the various roads of Europe, USA, Peru, New Zealand and wherever else they got to. But I think that the demand for various parts is not so high simply because they last so well, and people put up with parts that have seen better days, or they 'make good' rather than replace.

Try the Amazon specialists around the country - they may have doors that can be made to look fine, even if they're not 100%.
