Ive tried to find the 70 series facts and figures and cant find it anywhere :sorry:

I cant remember who posted the table up in the first place, but they might be able to sort it. IIRC it was posted in early April 09.

Ha, R's aren't rare at all! If you want really rare, there are only 3 Black 940 2.0 Manual Saloons left in the UK, and I have one of them.

:bricks: I'm waiting, lol :bricks:

i do wonder how accurate the charted figures are, there are a few colour variations listed that weren't available as a T-5R & have heard some numbers from Volvo which are lower than those. As the info was sourced from the DVLA i also guess that the numbers represent the cars which have either "T-5R" or "R" on the logbook, & we know how often the DVLA mess up lol. Not forgeting the first "T-5R's" were actually labels "850 plus 5" so who knows what was on the logbook

Mine is one of 7 and at the last count two of those weren't taxed on the road so that could potentially make it one of 5 now which I would say is quite rare and tbh I have only seen one other grey saloon since I bought mine which was on ebay but it had the light beige interior not the dark interior like mine :)
