My neighbour has a 52 plate C70 2.0ltr Turbo Convertible.

After seeing the strut brace on my 96 plate 855 T5 he wants one for his car.

This is his engine bay layout................

The box at the side of the n/s strut top looks like it may be in the way for the strut brace i have on mine, im unsure :confused:

Will the 855 strut brace fit his car or is there a seperate one for the C70's ?

Cheers guys :D

The proper 70 series OE brace will fit no problems :)

Had a look on Ebay and the V70 strut brace just looks like the one i have :confused:

I just thought that the box at the side of the n/s strut top would have been in the way, but looking at the picture of mine it comes down on quite an angle on that side so should clear it ok.

Cheers anyway, i'll get him one ordered :B_thumb:

There is much roaring and the odd psst! (as you can make out the recirc valve)

It's satisfying in a deeply immature way
