As I mentioned a couple of months ago on Twitter a famous aftermarket Volvo & Saab-manufacturer stops producing parts. Most Volvo classic car drivers know Scantech for its cheap (but sometimes poor) aftermarket parts.
Rumours last January said the investers of Scantech wanted to quit investing money in the company, but it seems Scantech stops being active in Europe and Asia and the name for Europe has been sold to a new owner. The new owner is Mino Autoparts (Sweden) but it seems they aren’t active in producing Volvo or Saab-parts at the moment. It’s not sure when (or if?) new reproduction of various Volvo classic parts will be started. Their new website (www.newscantech.com) isn’t active yet.
The official statement on the Scantech-website:
Scan Tech USA/Sweden AB based in Tumba, Sweden has discontinued operations outside of North America and therefore is no longer accepting any orders.
