2013 - S70R clean up..

So fresh from a full service etc and with the weather today being quite nice my brother decided to give the car a clean up.. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera on me so you'll have to settle for crappy i-phone camera quality and these shots really don't do the car justice.. lol

Quite a complement coming from someone with car like yours :)

It's certainly low, but oddly doesn't give much ground clearance issues, been like that now for around 2 years. Despite it's low ride height it rides well he's got the rebound rate perfect, no one who has been in it can believe how well it handles either. KW's are definitely the best coil over kit to buy for a Volvo.

Think your being a bit hard on yours there Gav, I think yours is a lovely car. Condition wise James has me piped to top space tbh. The paintwork on his is like glass at the moment it's that smooth ;)

Some people pay a lot and buy them well looked afte in a good nick and look after them others buy what they can afford and put a lot of work into them to make them look and drive great.Don`t underestimate your car Gav,she looks great.

That is stunning, wish I could get a ride height like that, bloody nivomats!
The paint finish looks fresh & not the miles you said.
Give me a few years & I'll be with you boys, my eBay bargain has the potential deep down I hope. Lol
