Barry is at Lakes, LS, and Bernie was the old Volvo guru at the defunct Braydon in north London. Though Braydon are no more, Bernie is still working up the road at Sentinel Volvo, run by his son Matt; Bernie MOTd my 940 last week.
The Braydon parts dept. still lives and is upstairs at Sentinel and run by Steve. Between them they must be the most knowledgeable old Volvoists and let's hope they keep going. I asked Steve about Lakes last week and he reckoned they've been closing for at least three years, and that the only way to get parts from them is to turn up on the doorstep. Can't be persuaded to post parts, apparently. |

There was a place many years ago called Volvo Village in Handsworth[Sheffield] I just tried looking them up to see if they were still going but it seems not.However I did stumble across a site called autovillage.co.uk into which you can put your model/year or registration number and what you're after and it'll come up with answers for refurbished used parts or breakers in Sheffield/Rotherham/Doncaster/Barnsley.Not used this site myself[only just found it]so can't say how good/bad it is.

I was in Lakes last week collecting an ABS module, still lots of stock although definitely call ahead to make sure they have what you need. I'm only 10 mins from them so happy to pop in there if I can help anyone

Well ... my trip was excellent, good weather, no scrapyards though so no Volvo news.
Picked up some expensive sheets of hardened steel from a small busy factory, car was smooth, job done. Hey Tomoose do they have cheap 940 1993 front sidelights?
