I picked up mine, almost identical to the one you're selling for just £400. Looks like I got a bargain if you're selling this for a grand. Good luck with the sale, it should sell easily for that price though seeing as it's an R-Line.

Did your phone auto correct? Because an R-Line looks more like......well this

Nope, no auto correcting was done. I can only go by the official Volvo owners handbook/manual................ :D :wiggle:
So there we are, end of 'discrepancy'. Now, where were we........
[QUOTE=AcidicDavey;774818]A manual AWD R is certainly a rare beast and that is not a standard exhaust but a £400 BSR/Jetex system :) GLWTS[/QUOTE] I admit the Jetex twin system looks nice but it's a little quiet for my tastes, hence I went for a mid note custom built powerflow system. The high-flow sports cat makes a hell of a difference too and I'd recommend it to anyone.

Woop, woop, James thinks he's being clever.
[QUOTE=claymore;774852]Woop, woop, James thinks he's being clever.[/QUOTE] No, I'm just demonstrating and backing up what I typed with an official document.
[QUOTE=JamesT5;774857]No, I'm just demonstrating and backing up what I typed with an official document.[/QUOTE] Can you post up more documentation of R-Line, I would be very interested to see that Volvo call their V70 an R-Line, I've only ever seen an R or R Design on the back of a Volvo.
My understanding. An R-Line is a type of car not associated with Volvo, but Volvo have an 'R' Line of cars.

Golf R-Line 32 �� Nissan Skyline GTR-Line �� Volvo V70R-Line ��

Interesting, is it mentioned anywhere else in the manual? Does the manual have a publication date and/or document version?
[QUOTE=Santa;774938]Interesting, is it mentioned anywhere else in the manual? Does the manual have a publication date and/or document version?[/QUOTE] Rich, he's just winding you up...maybe even intentionally. If the L was upper case (as in R-Line), then yes the manual would be indicating that a Volvo S/V70 R-Line existed. Since the 'L' in lower case, then it is just referring to Volvo's line (range) of 'R' badged cars.
This is how I also read it, or to maybe put it another way... Are the others mentioned above i.e. petrol, turbo, diesel and AWD, exact models, or lines of cars covering multiple models.
I suspect James is just on a windup again, I for one can't believe he could possibly make so many errors, unless it was a deliberate act to get a reaction.
Another thread wrecked by jamest5 The op was only trying to sell his broken car for the best price.
At least it keeps the sales thread on the first page :)
Not a wind up - I read it in the manual a few days before and then typed it in the reply. Interesting how I provide documentation to back up what I'm saying and yet there's a bunch on here (as usual), who insist I'm typing a load of double dutch.
I think the "R-line" is referring to the R line-up or R spec for that model as a whole. So James, remove the capital L.

I'm not sure a single mention in the manual only relating to the tires qualifies as a view on Volvo marketing decisions or reasoning. Interesting all the same, anyone elses manual makes mention of this?
