Hi Geo,

Cheers for the heads up. I'm desperately needing 850 bits, so I'll be going on my day off. Stewart's is a great yard. Could you tell me whether the 850 was an estate? And what engine/spec it was?

Hi Geo,

Cheers for that info! I'm needing different bits and pieces, including the small white plastic circular clips inside the tailgate mechanism, I tried ones from a mk2 V70 but they are totally different. As well as trim parts, there will be other bits and pieces too. Yeh will do I'll mention it to them, I used to be fairly regular in Stewart's and have bought a good few bits over the last few years

Hi Geo,

Yeah I managed over thanks - managed to get the tailgate locking bits for mine and the windscreen ticket holder, and interior drivers grab handle so just small bits I got.
