Assorted Volvo Clean-out - all must go, and all is free..!
Hi Team,
During the time I owned a Volvo, I amassed a huge amount of knowledge and help from the people on here. I also was given a couple of bits by helpful members on here. I've recently sold my S60. So, I'm handing down the collection of parts I've got, plus some stocks of engine oil which aren't low-ash (and so are no use in the new car which has a DPF). Cost? Any of the parts themselves are available for the price of a "Thank you!" Postage? Collection from Manchester centre highly preferred. For the smaller items, if you're really keen I can look at postage costs..! Pictures? Here are photos of everything excluding the oil: https://got.ctho.co.uk/volvopics/assortedbits/ What's up for grabs? I have the following things:
So yep, drop me a reply on here if you're interested. Sorry it turned into a bit of a confessional on things I intended to do but never did. There's no amazingly urgent rush on any of this, it's been in the garage all this time, so it can wait a bit longer. If you can't collect, let me know where you're based - I might be passing nearby at some point in the future, you never know Last edited by blueacid; Sep 16th, 2019 at 20:06. |

I'd would like to take up your very generous offer. I would have use for a number of those things. I don't want to appear greedy so if you have multiple requests and want to share them out that's fine. In order of priority I would like
1. PAS Reservoir 2. Handbrake Springs 3. Drop Links 4. Exhaust Hanger 5. ATF (There are 3 V70s and an S60 in our family and I maintain them all!) I'm in Manchester (M41) also so collection not a problem. Thanks

Happy for you to have all that you've asked! Given the silence here & certainly the absence of any howls of protest, is there anything else you'd like which you were initially holding back from for fear of seeming greedy? You're welcome to it if so!

Hi, I'm down South but my dad's still in Crewe if you are ever in that area?
If by any chance you were, I'd be interested in the roof bars, the oil and the magician's manual for my S60. I'd pick up, but I won't be back up for a few weeks yet. Let me know, nothing lost if not, thanks |

That's great. Thank you.
It's a future project to put a tow bar on my wife's V70 so if nobody else sticks their hand up I would make use of that harness also. I just checked part no on VIDA and it's the right one for her car. I'll PM you and hopefully we can sort out some arrangements.

OK - here's the sit-rep so far!
Pending collection but earmarked for b1mcp: 1. PAS Reservoir 2. Handbrake Springs 3. Drop Links 4. Exhaust Hanger 5. ATF 6. Towing power harness Pending collection (or, me driving past) Bonefishblues: 1. Roof Bars 2. S60 Haynes Manual Still could be yours!: 1. P1 Haynes Manual (C/V/S70) 2. Engine Oil ...looking at it, I might well go post in the P1 forums to see if anyone wants that haynes manual..! Last edited by blueacid; Sep 19th, 2019 at 10:21. |

Happy to hang on to them until we can work something out, they aren't big and offensive in the garage (and given that b1mcp is nearby, I imagine that the majority of the volvo parts will be gone before too long so the garage will be emptier - mission accomplished) |

Well I got my share of the booty this evening. Many thanks to @blueacid. He even dropped them off at my house as he was in the area, and we had a good car conversation.
What a gentleman.
