Hi Everyone... Test drove my first Volvo on Saturday and bought on the spot, picking it up tomorrow.. It's a '95 850 T5 Auto Estate, and replaces my VR6 Golf (sold back in March) as the 'do it all' workhorse.... I've had a 'thing' about owning a Volvo Estate for a long time now, and still clearly remember watching the Estate's in the BTCC at Snetterton back in the '90's.... Cheers all, Richard

Hi guys, thanks for the great welcome... As far as I know she's mechanically original, and only glaring external mods are exhaust tip and black roof.... Here goes with pics...

I second that, tidy looking T-5 that one and doesn't look to have been messed with too.
