Has anyone out there in Forum land got any idea how many of the T5R's were made in Auto and how many in manual? Was it half and half? I just ask as mine is a manual (M Plate TWR trim), and never seemed to have seen another one in manual.
And, whilst I'm on posing puzzlers - how many (roughly) were saloon and how many estate?
Oh, and in case anyone's interested and got more money than sense - was in the Volvo main dealers in Sheffield (Attercliffe area) few weeks back and they actually have/had an M Reg T5R saloon for sale in pride of place in the main show room. Yellow, about 70k on it, and absolutely immaculate (well, was - it'll have needed waxing again once I'd finished drooling on it). Talking to the guy and they wanted the princely sum of £8k for it, but would "maybe be open to negotiations"! As I guy who'd just paid £3k for his with admittedly more miles on it I should bloody well hope they were "open to negotiations"!
