chesters1 1577 Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 (edited) moaning again ,i have to order anything for my volvo from the nearest volvo "parts" (thats a joke) department ,i cant see why the fooking countryside is filled with volvo's around here so why not a small stock of items they sell the most? now dammit the sames going on at the nearest vw parts dept ,i have had to order 4 blooming bolts ,just bolts nothing fancy and theres hundreds of golfs around here and a great upsurge in those that restore and modify them (us classic car owners ) the adjoining workshop must need them for their job or do you twiddle your thumbs waiting for the bits to arrive when you use them to repair your car ,and no doupt get charged for the benefit of it the exact same thing went on when i had my mazda but at least they had an excuse it was rare (golf shaped mazda 323 gt) this was a great little car and far more advanced in passenger comfort than the golf despite being 3 years older than mine the golfs only 22 years old it isnt blooming some 3 wheeled steam car from a 100 years ago Edited June 6, 2008 by chesters1 Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies! There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle Mathew 4:19 Grangers law : anything i say will turn out the opposite or not happen at all!

DavyR 0 Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 so why not a small stock of items they sell the most? Welcome to the business principle (introduced from Japan, or so I'm told) of "Just in time", not "Just in case". Nobody stocks anything anymore... Link to post Share on other sites
Jeff S 0 Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 (edited) Ebay Chesters. I just picked up a few near and off side indicators for my 'volvo' for 1/4 the price at the dealer and they were new in the box.. From their .com site not the .co.uk site. and I'm really looking forward to seeing how much this service lamp light is going to cost me Edited June 6, 2008 by Jeff S Jeff Piscator non solum piscatur.
