Lovely looking car

Well the problem has been solved and it was down to a faulty air valve leading to the injectors.

On the way home it was a lot more responsive but the tickover was a bit higher than normal and the...

Frankie, you are a star, it worked a treat, many thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this place.

The guy at the tyre fitting place expressed the opinion that it was most likely either CV joint or the driveshaft. As I said earlier, it is going in to a Volvo specialist in the morning so hopefully...

I can see I will have to buy a new box of shotgun cartridges..........

Merry Xmas to everyone and especially to the mods for their efforts. Hate to say it as the designated turkey baster I am already "stuffed". Have a great Xmas and New Year everyone.

I beg your pardon, I have been verbally bending your arm for the V5 for this car for a number of years now, if you offer this car to anyone else before moi I will have to lodge a formal complaint and...

Thanks Frankie, it worked a treat. I owe you one.

I was recently doing a tip run in mine the other day, which included a few bags which had been left outside overnight and as I wizzed along a derestricted stretch of road a fecking big rat which had...

Both cars look really well and the black alloys against the olive bodywork looks the cohonnes.

Thanks for that "sounds" like this needs further investigation, now where are the kids piggy banks?

As has already been said ST's new purchase thread probably covers most things.

I had the the 06 model and is was more of a grand tourer than anything else, but great fun at the same time.

Apart...

Nice motor ST, we had a similar one until fairly recently. Watch the roof mechanism, the operation of ours began to get slower and slower, until it finally threw it's hand in, presenting us with a...

Hey stopped revving the nuts off my next car like that!!

I have got an autobox from a 96 850 if it will fit.

Hi mate,
If you are after standard 16" size I am just about to advertise a full set of Columba alloys as soon as I get the pics sorted.

At least two of the tyres are virtually brand new...

Bell Direct has been recommended as a cheaper option.

Sorry Dave I don't follow your logic, how can a similar car which someone paid £3300 two years ago now be worth £3500.

I know the used car market has strengthened a bit in the past, but I think...

Have you got any pics you could send me?

Rufe sorted me one out for my 854. Top quality and service, particularly since Rufe was ble to send it straight to the bodyshop who painted and fitted it.

Certainly are, I have got them on my 96 854 and they are a great compromise between a nice ride and the ability to push on a little bit.

The springs dropped it 30mm IIRC.

IIRC JEM tyres in Farnworth on http://www.tyresandalloyslancashire.co.uk/ were doing 17" replica PEGS plus tyres for something like £550.

This was about 12 months ago but worth a call because I...

The last few sets on my 854 have been Sportracs and Ultracs and were pretty good, however the set of Rainsport2s I had on my old S70 were better again.

Walt,
Slightly of topic, those lights look the dogs nuts and the paintwork is looking a bit nice too!

No we haven't all retired to VOC, there is a vast difference between giving your car a bit of a squirt on a clear road and "enjoying it's performance", as opposed to racing with a car on a public...
