Body/Trim: - New Bootlid '06 V70 D5

foxwelljsly · Jun 9th, 2021, 07:52

Recently got rear ended by a lorry in my '06 V70 185 D5 manual.

Bumper and bootlid will need replacing and I am expecting a write off.

The bumper has a little cosmetic damage which I suspect I can live with.

But, in anticipation of needing one, where is the best place to obtain a salvage bootlid?

Cheers

I have used Huddersfield Volvo Breakers to get a couple of doors and other body parts in the past. Good stock there, and the bodyshop who did the repair commented on how good their supplied parts were.

Worth checking what damage there might be behind the bumper skin.

Thanks all - anyone know if the boot lids from the 00-04 cars are a drop in replacement for an '06 car? cheers

Main impact was at the top, the bumper has very little damage, but this will be checked by the insurers bodyshop.
