A member on here used to own the 855 that was used in the review. Not sure whi it was though as that info was lost.

I had Goodyear F1's on the T5 and didn't like them. Had them on a 306 and were excellent, horses for courses I think.
Have Ultrac Sessantas on my Jag at the moment and are excellent.

18T then?
Thanks Les, I did have a search on here as I know it has been discussed before. I wasn't sure if it was lost when the forum went down?
Did the auto have 240hp and the manual 250hp?

Sorry mate forgot to say, its a 1998.

What turbo does a V70R FWD auto have fitted as standard?

Thanks

I never said MTE was better than RICA. I have MTE and like it others have RICA and like it, easy.

Sorry think I was misunderstood, MTE are good. Three of my family have MTE maps, RICA are fine from what others have said but the RICA "specials" seem to be RICA software copied and sold cheap.
Even...

Ok so your not a chav and you want your car to go faster (or look better?), just get it remapped. It'll do far more than raising your bonnet ever will.

I'd have got the ebay one to.
Even if the ones HLM are selling are RICA specials he was slagging RICA off not so long back!

Its nice to be back though, keeps me entertained people trimming bits of plastic to let air out and raising bonnets etc, still each to their own...

I think Norn Iron is Irish for Northern Ireland.

Its been a while since I've been on here but where did all the chavs appear from?

I would love to keep the Jag but its costing alot to run, around home I'm lucky to get 15mpg.
I'm working away and struggle to fit 3 peoples gear in the boot.

I have a good Volvo dealer to who...

Looking at the auto so at least I don't have these to worry about.

My brother had an X type and the bottom end went with 44000 miles on it. He's had a new engine fitted now and bought an Impreza.
I have an XJR which I'm selling and coming back to Volvo.
I was...

Forgot to say are RAC/AA inspections worth the money?

I've currently got a Jaguar XJR so hopefully it won't cost anymore than that to repair?

I'm looking at buying a V70 D5 03/04 which is the 160bhp odd one. The mileage on the ones I've looked at is around 145000.

What do I need to watch out for on these cars? Its the Auto I'm looking...

I know its a different car but I got a cat back exhaust done at Longlife Leeds for £620. My cars a Jag XJR which more or less has two exhausts.
The workmanship was spot on and they either provide a...

The bikes seem a bit high really, my Dads got an 850 with a bike rack that bolts onto a plate behind the towbar, the bikes don't stick above the roof much.

I'd be worried about the amount of drag...

You need to think about insurance too, if one tyre wasn't to spec they might not pay out if you had a bump, depends how piccy your company wants to be?

These are excellent: http://www.camskill.co.uk/products.php?plid=m4b758s322p0

Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta, £103 each, I've got them on my Jag and can't fault them, my Pirellis tramlined like hell...

Driving home from work the other day a Mazda 3 cut me up big style and I nearly hit the central reservation, he didn't see or move despite me been hard on the horn.

Anyhow, how would I go about...

Made to pay for the damage and then sent to Iraq or Afghanstan for a year... see how many offend then, tossers.

This is like the 3litre police Volvos that were flying around at one point....

Anyone got any views or ideas on which is the best stainless cat back exhaust for a 1997 V70 T5?

Lookign at getting the wheels refinished on my '97 V70 T5, the cars black and I'm thinking blank wheels might look smart, any ideas or pics of black wheels on a black V70 estate?
Also who does a cat...
