Quick update on the 850 springs. Good shout KMB. The car sits really nice like before but just a little stiffer and more rigid round the bends while maintaining the comfort for cruising. Other than...

Cheers for the feedback. Ill give footman james and Peter best a call tomorrow and see how much it is to insure the 850. 20 years now so I'm hoping it's quite a bit cheaper.

Guys. Looking for an insurance company that do good deals for us here at Volvo. What companies do you guys use and recommend to insure your classic volvos. Cheers.

Yea he says they look like standard shocks and are in good condition so I'll just get the springs and replace all 4 corners. Cheers again for the link. Im happy it was just a minor fix with no other...

Great stuff thanks mate.

Iv don't know whether my 850 will have nivomats on the rear. Do you know if they are commonly used on 95 850 saloons or is it just the estatet that they're used on?

Looking for some suggestions please lads.

850 went in for an MOT today and my garage advised rear springs. The previous owner must have put lowering springs on with standard shocks but all I know...

Has anyone fitted a front or rear strut brace recently? Do these really add improvement to body roll or can anyone suggest an alternative upgrade that will reduce body roll on an S60 please?

Yea you're right, that's why I really want the 2006-07 6speed auto. rare beasts though! I just need to learn and be patient!

Lol, Big Greg you're totally right, I think because it's just down the road from me I was going to check it out and see how much I would need to spend to get it back original and make him a silly...

Yea that's what I thought. Especially one that's had it removed. Looks a bit rough round the edges too.

Thanks lads. Seems like they wouldn't be that difficult to fit myself and would just go to Volvomax in Glasgow to get he software installed and set up. Thanks for the info.

I know this is already a highly debated subject but as I'm looking to buy a V70R at some point this year , I'm trying to justify the usual maintenance issues and running cost that come with it. Do...

Right I'll give it a shot. Cheers for that mate.

Cheers, It it an easy DIY fix?
