Hi Everyone
After a few years away Im back to my Volvo's.....
I really missed the last 850 I had which some of you may remember.... pic of my old one ;) >>>>
Anyway, Im back with this one ;) as I missed my 850..... Needs modding yet .... orthough already fitted bumper... (needs spraying now) ;) >>>>
And braught a few other bits....... The Egg crate grill is a must ;)
Few scuffs need sorting......
Unfortunately my red Ibiza Bocanegra is going as she is costing me way to much ..... So I brought another Volvo 850, orthough the Ibiza with the 1.4 turbo and supercharger is EXTREMELY FAST!!!! I just missed the 5 cylinder 20v goodness!!!!
Volvo's generally being more reliable, quick and hopefully cheaper ;) I feel this was the right move for me at the moment..... I only paid £800
for my first T5.... and was the best car for the money ever.....
The new one seems very straight (text check clear) very straight for a 1996 car ;) and not bad for £600 really ;) .....plus just had full MOT (£140) ...... £740 all in....
Its in the same colour with only 100k miles (low I believe for a Volvo???) My P reg one was on 148k when first purchased and she never missed a beat EVER!!!!
Will keep you all posted on further progress as I have serious mods to come soon including engine work, turbo,RICA,DV,intercooler,coilovers, alloys........... ;)
