They tend to come fitted to later C70s.
My '04 C70's wheel is about twice as thick as my S70. Nice and soft too.

Yep, it has chunky roof rails which I assume came in at the start with XC and then rolled out to 'll V70s later. Genuine Volvo crossbars to match.

Anything I can remove before Saturday, I can deliver down the M6 free as I'm going to Swindon and back.

It's just grey plastic I'm afraid!

Still mostly complete and available on this car, as I've been on holidays and also pushing on with the Amazon project!

Hi
Im after the 2 grills in the rear load area. They fit under the rear windows. You can see them in the picture of the boot area. Im also after a CD multiplayer cover if yours has one. The piece that fits on the floor with the lid on it,

Cheers,


...Guy

Any idea when you are going to start breaking this as I'm starting my awd conversion next weekend and do with the parts we discussed.

T5R_Guy - those little grilles are now in my TDI as it had broken ones I'm afraid, and it has no CD changer.

oblark - I thought you had a complete AWD car for breaking - can you PM me with what you still need, please? My priority at the moment is getting the Amazon on the road next month, so big time consuming stuff to remove might take a while. Will do my best especially if I'll be near you for delivering.

Foggys- Top engine stabiliser (the lightweight brace itself) has been chopped but the castings are still there if they're any use?
