Working in a shathole and it's a pita keeping it clean.

The bairn didn't recognise me at first, she's only 9 months old so never seen me any different. My Dad didn't even notice, he's so wrapped up in himself. That's another story though.

Sell half the fleet & go for it.....this article says you must... http://www.designsnext.com/top-10-cars-mens-drive-to-attract-women/ Volvo C70 is a blend of man’s aggression and sports car’s agility on road. With its retractable rooftop, it gives you the option of letting your woman feel air on her face. Its appearance (both exterior and interior) trumps everything else. It’s a reminder about how cool a convertible can be. It is more affordable than Jaguar XK Convertible or Mercedes-Benz E Class and the typical Volvo interiors serve as an addition on to its appeal. Its turbocharged 2.5-liter engine and a five-speed automatic transmission can lead to 227 horsepower and provides 236 pound-feet of torque. Its 1,500 rpm is too much for any woman to handle. It has got an electronically limited 150-mph top speed and takes 7.5 seconds to reach 60 mph. It’s fuel economic too with 18mpg in city and 28mpg on highway. It costs $41,200.
When/if my C70 T5 coupe dies, I plan to seriously look for a C70 T5 vert. I was thinking of a 9-3 Aero vert but after my experience with the 9-5, I'll steer clear of the Saabs.

Got to ask is it worth it just for another mortgage??[/QUOTE] Personally, I found it can become hard to have a mortgage & work contract. When the work is down you worry where the cash is going to come from. If I was going to get a big mortgage I'd much prefer a staff job just to avoid the stress. A better idea would be to save the money up first by working contract...although I've never achieved that!! I made a plan to save up some cash over the next say 10 yrs then buy a place. Mind you as soon as I save some cash up I usually blow it on a car...

foammanmark are those the later C70 headlights and indicator units fitted to your R ? I have just bought a Nautic R FWD like yours but with the grey seats/trim, like to fit the same and where best to get them?

And which bulb is best in the projects?
:lol: no I'm off on my hols so happy! It was free so forgot to check the quality I remember one chap we introduced spirits to threw his mattress & bedding out of the digs window, in a vodka-induced rage last week about the same time was playing vodka pong....like beer pong but you get the idea.

[QUOTE=hillsidesteve;801486]How do you rate the Projectors against the crystals in terms of light output? And which bulb is best in the projects?[/QUOTE] I think the crystals are best for light output, and I have bought an HID kit for the projectors, but yet to be fitted.

Corona is a beer lol gawd did I need it, leathers for my s60 mate it's got half leathers which are comfortable but a car like that needs leathers, loads of cream ones but I'm unsure wether or not they will go with black interior, black leathers are harder to come by its looking that way at least for now.
