Well hello sir :) V8 XC90? please tell me you have a stainless system on it :D A T5 in a XC? how did that happen? And finally... tell me more about the ex-plod...?

i wish we had a system on it, i was looking at heico stuff for it, i like the white one they have on there site, not too over the top. but to be fair it might be going now. as iv been hoarding car without thinking about it! lol i actually have more than i listed but they are me 3 favourites...ish. we have an audi allroad 2.7t too to name one more, the air sus was playing up on that so its been sat for a while. The xc70 2.4 t went at about 180k so put the 2.3 t5 in it... its fun for what it is, the look on some peoples faces when they trying to push you along then put your foot down! lol i would like in time to to make it into an ipd xc70 type thing. the s60 t5 is a shared toy with a mate, few days away with the lads playing racing cars... o and a few beers.

My front doesn't rub any more than when it had standard suspension. Slap some 336mm XC90 brakes on there for cheap big stoppers too.
