Question Volvo breakers -- North West area

Hi

Does anyone know of a breakers yard who specialise in Volvo parts??? Have had a bit of an eye opener recently with a visit to my nearest Volvo main dealer (Stratsone in Accrington).

I live in Lancashire, so wondered if there was one around here.

Are there any outside the North West area and if so, do they do mail order.

Many thanks

Darren

Default Salvo

I always used to use SALVO also.

If you wanted something big they are just an hour and half away along the M62 and down the M1 - just off J26. They do post though.

Cheers
