Actual top mount shattered? C70/V40/V50 like 2005-2015? They often do that, Ford parts bin part I think.
Lemforder used to be the OE supplier of the older cars, FoMoCo (ford) will likely be the oe of the newer ford cars. Easy to change though as its just the top of the damper (rear?). Soak everything in plusgas/doubleTT/kroil a few days leading up to when you are going to do it. Change both as a pair, jack up corner of car, trolley jack under arm, remove road wheel ,lower arm gently until damper loose enough to remove, Keep trolley jack locked otherwise road spring will fly out at you. Should be able to do both on driveway in about an hour so long as no seized bolts. £40-45 per corner for a mount. Don't bother with cheapo ones via ecp, they will disintegrate in a year if you are lucky.

Good knowledge and yep rear RH side. Managed to find the OE number but not sure this is something I want to attempt in the street. Might take it to a Volvo indy up the road in Shoreham. Do garages (like bike shops) get offended if you turn up with your own parts for them to fit?

Yeah wondered how their branded parts last such a short time.

Not the greatest start to new car ownership. Volvo C70 2006, looks like suspension top has sheared off. Hopefully just needs a cheap part replaced. Any volvo heads on here know where I might be able to find a replacement?
