Hey there! names Ryan, im 19 live in bradford west yorkshire and yes, i drive a 1995 volvo 850 T5 salloon.
this car is my 2nd car and im absolutely in love with it, my first car being a volvo 740 estate (i know, not verry youthfull right?) been hooked on volvo's and the idea of a fast sleeper since i was very young, get nailed all the time for my car choise but hey at the end of the day, im the one with the huge smile on my face.
would LOVE to meet up with a few people nearby and possibly get some help/advice/parts from here, ya see im wanting to make mine into the more agressive T5R look, the look i always wanted so slowly but surely im getting the parts. just need a little bit of a help if possible =)

Welcome aboard, you've come to the right place for 850 modding, some of these guys really know their stuff.
(and some of them wouldn't know how to operate toilet paper but that's another story)

That makes me feel better that you're not younger than the car. My Gul is 19 on the 1/8/14, and I won't/can't say how old I am, but I can just about remember being 19. I have a big customer just off Dick Lane, and was also in Leeds on Brown Lane West.
