Hi all Been without a Volvo now since 2003 when I owned a rather nice 850 t5. Which was sadly taken from me by some scum who in their wisdom burnt it out.so from there on I've owned the usual Imprezas type r's etc.so roll on to the modern day a little bit older and wiser(42 yrs old) I've decided I want to build a sleeper.ive always missed the t5 so here I'll I am saving up the penny's to either buy t5 s60 or v70. I'll probably end up asking for advice buying these cars etc and hopefully a build thread when I get started...

Welcome aboard. You won't be waiting long to find a car. Prices are rock bottom for the early P2 stuff now too.

Welcome! You should find a decent car for cheap money as Martin said. I recently knew of one local to me but it's just sold. Will keep my eyes peeled though.
