Hello everyone, im new to this forum and im picking up my first T5 today, a S70 T5 manual in red. Got a 50 mile drive home so hopefully have some fun.

Ive always wanted a T5 after test driving an 850 T5 quite a few years ago, but having a company car couldnt really justify having a personal car, so change of job without a comanpy car has given me the chance to get a car i really wanted.

Had a good look through the forums and you guys seem to really know your stuff, hopefully you can give me a few ideas on mods when the cash flow gets a little better!!!!

Picked the car up this afternoon, took my dad with me for the return drive. I think he thought it was a normal saloon car. I floored it and i think he had a brown trouser moment!!! lol
Anyway love the car, definaltey a Jekyll and Hyde personality!!!

Shall hopefully take some pics when the weathers better.

My mouse is playing up which makes finding stuff amusing to say the least!!

I have an 1997 850R and I too always wanted a T5. Guess thats why I have one now???

S70's are cool particularly red ones - as anyone will tell you - red ones are faster

Enjoy.
