From a distance (maybe a substantial one) you could maybe get away with saying the pegs were refurbed with a polished lip...would mean kerbing the other 3 to match though

AH my next port of call was a message to you!

The subaru one looks like a better fit? is it from a classic? i'll see if i can get an old sub/evo hoop and go from there i think

Cheers

i made the move 14 months ago from 270hp (ish) manual 855R with 120k on the clock to a bog standard 145k P2 V70R manual, Whilst sitting in traffic in the 850 a certain flash green scottish V70 passed...

i'm trying to convince the g/f that when she replaces her DS3 later this year she should look at v40 or xc40,

the more she see's the advert on tv for the XC the more she seems interested.
...

yeah thats true, i used to cycle past an S60r with atacama everyday thinking i couldnt live with that. Now i can't imagine my v70 having anything different.

looking at your photo makes me miss my...

thats a nice looking 850

the only thing i would change it if was mine would be the interior, (all) red cars suit a darker interior in my opinion.

Now this may be a stupid question, but

Got my first message on the dash today, sayin ALARM SERVICE REQUIRED.....! now i like to think i'm relatively mechanically minded and will have a go at...

i tried a few different front tyres on the 850 and finally settled on Hankook ventus v12's. excellent grip and ride quality for the price. Seemed to suit the roads up here well

i keep being drawn to a ferrita cat back, from all the internet reading about them i cant find anyone unhappy with theirs.
