    Review wobblys silver C70

    Wobbly popped to my office today and we went out for some lunch, and I had a drive in his C70.
    Well very nice drive very smooth refined with lovely handling and a good use of power.
    Fitted with bigger rims than your average T5 it holds the road well and gets the power down very well.
    In comparison to earlier cars ive driven its so so smooth and refined.

    Cheers Dave , and I hope you get the news you are waiting for.

    I am prepared to bet that Wobbly has told you to post on here about how good his car is?

    I'm sure someone could modify one of those awnings that attach to VW Camper vans for us c70 owners
