With thanks to Martin i have picked myself up this beauty and i am extremly happy with it. You may have all seen the for sale thread previously so i will keep it brief. 1995 Volvo 850 T5 S manual saloon 190k approx as odo doesnt work Full service history Standard apart from cone filter and MBC (for now ;)) half leather interior 1 owner plus martins short stint from new. I have a few ideas for her and a rear spoiler is on the top of the list so when i can get hold of one. [ATTACH=CONFIG]28135[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]28136[/ATTACH] Thanks Martin like i said im very happy with it and it hasnt skipped a beat. it was sparkling when i picked her up but by the time i got home (180miles) it was filthy so took it to the hand carwash. also very impressed with your TDI

Lovely little car this, I was set to buy this but things got held up and I bought an S70R instead. Wish I still got it as a hack though! Have you got any plans for it?

I'm in between the UK and Spain at the moment so it will be slow progress. Its crying out for a rear spoiler so hopefully get my hands on an R one alond with front bumper and volans then upgrade the handling components needs a paint touch up here and there and then I'll start looking at more power.

Sounds good. I really love the rear lights on the 850 saloons but with the spoiler they look even better.

Yeah I have always wanted one I've had all the others but always wanted one of these

Glad your happy mate, I miss it a little though. But then a quick blast in the tdi puts the smile back on my face lol.
