Volvo breakers near Frome, Somerset?

As per the title. Happy to travel a fair bit for the right place! Bath, Bristol, or other directions. Need the hose between the MAP sensor and inlet manifold. The nipple on the old MAP broke because PO fitted heavy duty general purpose hose (braided fuel?) and (maybe) engine vibrations have snapped nipple off MAP. Otherwise it's general purpose silicone hose games! ('04 V70 N/A petrol). In earlier times, when I lived elsewhere, Lakes Breakers was my favourite Saturday drive. I just loved that place. Older than old school!

Hi Arctan,

This section of the forum is for the older V70s.

Whitefield Metals know their Volvos and would be worth a try.
