Default Used V70 wishbones

With Volvo now operating on an exchange basis (apparently) are a set of used P2 V70 original wishbones worth anything?

I have a set hanging up in the garage - not sure whether to bin them or whether they have any value.

They're worth a few ££'s on here, not much but people like to have a spare set to bush up and just do a swap rather than have the car off the road while new bushes are fitted.

But if you're giving them away...... ;-)

Are they alloy wishbones (lower arms) or the later steel ones ?
Interested if they're steel !

I'd say they're alloy as they're non-magnetic. They are off a 2005 P2 facelift 170.

No good for me then - I think it's 06 & 07 models that, like mine, have steel wishbones.

Does anyone want these before they end up at the tip?

A couple of beer tokens would be appreciated but mainly, I hate throwing stuff away, especially if it can be used!

Collection can be from Northampton or Kettering

Why don't you just leave them where they are in case you need a new set ?
