Volvo 240 - rear arch supplier

Mark1Stu · Jan 29th, 2013, 12:42

Hi,

Can anyone recommend the best supplier of rear arch replacement panels for a late Volvo 240 saloon (1988) - as mine need repair.

I've seen a few advertised on e-bay but are described as fitting models up until 1981....which is a little off putting as mines a newer model.

Thanks

Stuart

Try giving Braydons a call perhaps

Got mines from a local parts supplier.
They are still manufactured by Klokkerholm.

Mine is an 86 Saloon.

If needed I can give you the reference for each panel.

Different for each side.

Thanks guys.
Braydons didn't respond to my request but don't, according to their web site, stock any.
VLV 240, I'll follow up your advice if I can't find a UK supplier/distributor.

^^^^ I've had the same with emails to Braydons. Try phoning one of their numbers, they've always been keen to help I've found

Theres little point emailing Braydons - the guys in the parts department that deal with older models dont really work like that. If you give them a ring they are really helpful. Ive often been on the phone to them for ages whilst the either look things up or find a 2nd hand part from stock.
