Actually its entirely innocent and to help a friend who's insurers wont pay out as they claim you cant break into a P2 and drive it away without the keys
Is it possible to break into and drive away in a P2 V70 without the keys?
I don't want specific details on an open forum but if anyone knows it CAN be done then can you let me know?
Sold! :biggrin:
In fact I've just seen your in Nuneaton can you PM me your number so I can give you a call to view (we're in in Leicestershire)
Depending on where you are I'm interested - just sold the other Volvo this weekend so I've got itchy feet already!
Fngers crossed its a good one :D All being well you'll have many happy miles ahead!
:troutslap lol
:kiss: Missed me?! :D
Noooooo you got it all wrong, the 'rat look' is meant to make people thing its a load of tat then you pull out all the horses and shock them - a standard T5 just aint gonna...
Or, for the money you spend on tuning and handling to try and get a heavy FWD T5 to be a properly quick car you could spend on something that comes out of the factory with RWD and big power :D
But an 850 isn't going to go like mad - unless your going to spend buckets on tuning and upgrades its just going to be your average T5 which in todays climate of vauxhall turbo's and Ford ST's etc...
Tis just my opinion but you've got the traditional oil return seal oil leak, no leather, a dodgy repair for a chunk of rust, the wrong engine, the mileage cant be verified for the last 4 years and no...
In fact I wouldn't pay anymore for it than its already at with the issues it has (you also have to wonder why the engine has been replaced as they are generally pretty bulletproof)
But hey, thats...
The T5R turbo is a 15g the V70 turbo is a 16T so theorectically he's downgraded rather than upgraded.
As has been said its the ecu that provided the extra boost not the turbo.
The standard...
Um hum :smileypul of course they did :crazy:
How to loose every penny you spent on buying the car in one easy step :cuckoo::rotfl:
Really sorry to hear that - is he OK?
Dunno about words of wisdom but we're in south Leicestershire if that helps :)
Anyone would think I am some sort of dragon :wizardtro lol
Pedro What do you want for less than 500 quid, there's just no pleasing some folk lol
Am sooooooooooooooooo glad MrMopp is at work...
In which case, if it were me, I'd stick with the MBC to begin with until you have found your ideal set up then get a custom map :) Sounds like an interesting conversion make sure you keep us updated...
Are you modding an 850 or something newer?
The turbo's Niles mentions are all Volvo units so can be sourced fairly easily and do pop up second hand on here or ebay from time to time.
If you...
Depends whether you are ME7 or not?
Are you confident that your car is in good condition for its miles? Turbo still working OK and not using gallons of oil? If thats the case then there are...
Sorry things haven't worked out with this one - I think we have all purchased at least one "bad un" in our time though.
With the mileage and this issues (inc no MOT or tax) it isn't going to be...
There's more over priced ones than there are cheap ones lol!
To some people they are just a Volvo and a 15 year old Volvo at that. There are also some serious dogs around out there that haven't...
What are you taking it there for? A Standard re-map?
:uglyhamme thats you off Barbosa's christmas car list lol!
Private plates will very rarely affect the overall price of the car I'm afraid. There are also a lot of over inflated valuations on private plates and what one person thinks is a great plate others...
