855 R ManualHow cheap can T5Rs get - there is one up on autotrader for a grand - looks alright too and it does have Titans and 11 months MOT. If it wasn't in Bracknell I would go and have a look. No history indicated but even in parts it has to be worth a punt. You can check it on the Autotrader site - trade sale too so may even include a modest warranty?

Thanked 229 Times in 169 PostsThere'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 been blessed with an enthusiast for an owner sadly.

Sometimes all they need is a bit of TLC1996 Olive Green 850 AWD - Follow the Project - Forged rods, 19T, big blue injectors, 960 TB, 3.25" MAF, Ostrich, 608 binary, arduino data display, active exhaust control with Focus RS tips, 320mm front brake conversion.
1996 Nautic Blue 850 AWD - Failed its MOT, now it's a donor for the green thing.

Thanked 150 Times in 122 PostsHe's had that up for sale for months. Only deals in top quality stuff though, so it should be top notch (like the prices)... Originally Posted by AlanG

Thanked 28 Times in 25 PostsTop quality stuff? Overpriced, worn smooth nails was what I saw on my visit to Dyrdals.
We actually went to look at a Golf for the missus that was so dirty inside she refused to get inside in case she ruined her clothes. Won't be back.
Funny, I parked my old T5 outside and had 2 offers on it from disenchanted punters viewing the dismal crusty farm-hacks on offer.Last edited by britten_mark; Friday 25th September 2009 at 19:43.
