haha, it just gets in the way!

Awesome! 50k and 3 owners in the same street.

I think when its finished it will look awesome. Its very similar to my brother's project - different car mind....

I have a real soft spot for the 340's. My parents had two of them when I was a kid - one saved my life in what could have been a very nasty car accident if we hadn't been in a Volvo.
They are pretty...

Hey - yeah the Volvo has come along nicely since you saw it. I'm actually trying to sell it now :( Cant believe you haven't fitted anything - it was aggeesss ago!
The Datsun is coming along good -...

I'm close to crying - not because they changed the wheels on a Gul, but because the wheels on the first Gul in that pic are truly horrendous and shouldn't be on any cars!

.....

erm, no engine was off

Yeah all the fluid levels are all good. I'll try the lock to lock thing, thanks

Come back from holiday and discovered that when driving the car the power steering is groaning when ever the steering is turned, even light turning whilst driving. The car also seems to pull to the...

You can definitely get a front bumper for the R's. I called up my local dealer and the bottom part was about £160ish to buy, same sort of price for the top grey plastic bit too

I have some random parts for 850's if you want to PM me a short list of the type of this you are after I can see what I've got left. I dont have any body parts left tho

I was going to make a comment back to this - but decided it would probably breach most of the forum rules!

Woot - finally managed to get some time to fit my front bumper! (Thanks to No1Tosh) for helping me out with this.
Great improvement, just to stick on the new number plate now.

Looks good - I have exactly the same on my 850R, although i've removed two boxes so its a 'bit' louder!

How many do you have exactly?

Looks a great start, I have the same gearknob in my 850R and for some reason thats the worst bit of the interior too.

Its pretty cool information. Who knew that Red was such a common colour for the 855R's, I thought we were quite rare

Damn the phone auto-correct!!
For the record - I have not, nor do I intend too, put paint anywhere near my bottom! Sttooopppiddd phone!

Mine we're a paint in the bottom to remove, had to drill out one or two of the fixings as a previous owner had used some crappy screws. I sadly bent the top edge of mine which now annoys me everytime...

So my poor little 850R has been a little neglected recently, what with a big house extension and actually having to move out of the house so the builders can pull apart the inside of the house...

Awesome - shame that you haven't been able to share some stories with him.

Do you think that they do with the 850's? When I spoke to volvo the guy didn't mention anything about it but then again he didn't really know what an 850 was!

Do we not get to blame Ford for everything anyway?

Holy crap! I'm really gutted for you, but very pleased that you are ok. Amazing how quickly car fires spread.
