Hi,

Bought back the wife's S60 to repair myself and have managed to get second hand door, bumper, wing etc but also need repair panels for the rear corner of the car. I've obviously been spoiled by availability of parts for Landy's and other classic cars.

I have no idea where to even buy weld on repair panels for this car, would the dealer be the best bet?

Any one able to help?

Thanks

Have you had a look at German, Swedish and French (GSF). I've pretty good at parts for Peugeot and VW cars.

Sorry do you mean part suppliers from those country's? I've been googling and found what I need but in Russia! hmm not sure how to even order parts so far away but not tried the countries you suggest

thanks, I've had a look but they don't seem to do repair panels for my car

I could ask on the Volvo owners club forum if you like thoroughly helpful bunch.

Any scrapyards near you?

Wrong end of the country, but there used to one close to me where they'd pretty much let you wander around and look for stuff.

Is that the front or rear panel?

There is a Volvo graveyard just off the a1 near tempsford. I think he has every variant. I know that he's 500 miles away but it may be the last resort. It is certainly the last resting place for many Volvos.

Alternatively I found online scrap yards for Peugeot parts were excellent and maybe the same is available for your Volvo.

Thanks, yeah maybe need to ask around to see if anyone does chop off sections from damaged cars like the above in this country. I know in the states they sell whole complete front ends etc. Can't watt to see the car back and find out just what the damage really is, hedging my bets that the bumper took almost all of it and I'll be able to pull out the rest...
