Just had a micro meet

[cameron]

Just had Kevin4878 come to mine today :D

Nice looking car, the Dark Burgundy ones ( colour please, like Rnash's and PFandango's ) but it has a few issues unfortunatelly :(

first off the PCV SYSTEM is absolutely knackered big time, half the hoses are split, theres a hose that goes nowhere, its blowing oil and crap out the dipstick as well.

Secondly its way over fuelling, the pump does not stop which causes it to run mega rich and causes a white smoke from the exhaust.

Apart from these 2 pretty major things it doesnt seem to bad and kev's a nice fellow from the army :tank:

Just have to get a few days off now kev and get it into Readviews :B_thumb:

Thats funny i thought the C70 mk1 only came in a coupe (NOT) but try telling that to the Volvo manager i was speaking to yesterday oh and almost forgot the D5's have 210 bhp that the first i knew of that as well thought they were only 180 (or somthing like that maybe 160)

[Wombatbomb]

D5's were originally 163bhp, then that went up to 185bhp.

[p fandango]

the colour is "red pearlescent metallic" according to the brochure (code 418), tbh its the first time i've even thought of looking up what the colour is actually called lol

also good to get the street talking by having your own mini-meet lol

The new D5 iirc is a twin turbo unit currently rated at 205bhp.

If the D5 history went from 163 in it's original guise to 185 where will this one end up at ?
