No problem for replying late!
It's going really slow on here , but better a slow reply instead no reply.

I will see how things go and what I can do for making a grease plug for you.
You always can send me a pm through this forum.
Cheers

Good find, thanks. €199 + 25% VAT + shipping is a bit steep but if that is the only option so that's it.
Haven´t got any reply yet from Spondon 440 or Dutch X1 on my PM:s.
Would it be possible for you to check if Dutch X1 still has his at at the dutch marketplace? I used to travel a lot to Volvos factory in Born for quality reviews but never learned your language!

Already had a look if he still has it , but his ad was expired and he doesn't have any other ad.
can't contact a seller if they haven't any advertising active.

The Dutch language is kind of difficult because of the lot of different sayings :roll: lOl

Think you'll find Spondon 440 has retired. Big shame because he made some beautiful pieces.

Yes it's sad he stopped making quality parts , but he had enough of it and all that came with it!

I was lucky enough and got a few parts before he retired.
