If you guys manage to find the part number for the correct throttle cable please let me know as I'm in search of the same thing

Berry Motor Group keep a lot of spares for 240, they buy in bulk from Europe and America and Uk.
Anything I have needed for three of my 240s has been on shelf.
*note that they cover a lot of online forum and FB parts requests but calling is best method not relying on messages here or even on FB .
I 've been trying to avoid them unless really necessary. Always like reaching out here to to try share money with people that might hold stock/spares rather than going to dealer/garage straight away.
Unfortunately, no longer available.
Darn, I've sourced one 2nd hand from the I Roll Volvo Page.
The one I sourced from Michael Furner was too short. Now I have a few cables sitting on the bench and none of them work :-/ Darn it!
ramrod Looks like other websites hold stock: https://www.classicvolvoparts.co.uk/search.asp?carID=&cID=&scID=&sID=1272898&page=

I'll check if I have one tomorrow, I know I have a throttle cable but not sure what it's from.
4 days later
morch_66479 I have one
Did you have any luck with this?
Sly240wagon I have one
Amazing, I'll take it Where are you based? I'm in Mornington, VIC
I'm going to remove my original one again this evening and measure it properly just to confirm we're right with dimensions before committing :-)
@morch_66479 I found the one I had spare but unfortunately it is not usable, the sleeve has broken pretty badly 
morch_66479 I messages you
So this is the original cable I'll be replacing. I also need a Phillips head screw as I dropped mine (pretty fussy and would like to replace it with original)
