You may think I've posted this in the wrong thread, but I haven't. I noticed a Volvo for sale on E-bay...

Volvo For Sale (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4542385755&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT)

I E-mailed the guy regarding whether it was a T5R or an 850R (850R in title and T5R in the description).

He replied :

Hi
Same difference. V5 doc says R, many refer to it as T5R. It was a
development of the T5 so that Volvo could go touring car racing.
regards
guy

He obviously doesn't know the difference or what they used in Touring cars...

Quick poll :
Do I e-mail him back and let him know the difference which would make me sound like a pretencious Volvo owner from VOC ?
Or do I keep my mouth shut and hope someone from here bags a bargain 850R without him knowing......(although I did see that he's had it valued)

That really freaking annoys me! :cussing: Surely when selling your car you should know a little about it!!

How many times have you heard them say on ebay - "the T5R was used by the police" or "The R/T5R was used in the BTCC"

FFS it wasn't!!! :bitehard3 Get yer facts right before you claim diarohea about your car!
