thought i would join this forum, i`ve had my 1995 850 T5 R estate , for a year now, and having rebuilt the suspension, reverted to the 16" wheels, upgraded the cat and exhaust system, overhauled most of the engine, and turbo... taken it through its MOT ...everything is good to go ! and it certainly does! its added to my other vehicles>>1990 series1 Honda Legend coupe (80,000 miles) complete standard , except wheels now 17".... and a 1987 MK1 BMW M5.( completely rebuilt over the last 20years) i have to say the Volvo is top dog amongst this lot ..inc my wife`s Lexus 2005/6 GS 350 ! and, the T5 out performs just about everything else! in luxury,.........and relatively(??) quietly ??, with no fuss, except shagging out the front tyres (prob my fault, heavy right foot) and i can carry plenty of gear if i need to !! its a bit low on country lanes and tracks, but, well slowly does it if loaded! i will have some questions for sure, and look forward to interesting detail exchanges! cheers all...
