Volvo 850 shell

Does anyone know where I can get hold of a 1/10 Volvo 850 Estate bodyshell? I've looked all over the net and found nothing.

volvo 850 estate body in 1/10th might be a bit difficult these days, i do know tamiya produced a saloon version aprox 5-6 years ago, but i`m not aware of an estate.

body shells get updated as new real cars are introduced into racing racing etc .I`m afraid an s40 is gonna be your closest bet, keep an eye on ebay .

you could try and contact modelsport above,
or parma , an american company.

I got it from the US site in the end. Cost me $12 shipping, which isn't too bad, and they do the BTCC sticker set too.
