Well since there aren't just Volvo's in this section, here are the results of a couple of days work a few months ago. Given the weather we've had it hasn't really been out since.

Nice reflection shots. A guy at work use to have a turbo one of these he gave me a drive of it, I thought it would have been faster than it was but it wasn’t slow but it was definitely one of the best handling cars I’ve driven .
Thanks

There must be a reason Brands Hatch use them as their driver training cars!
Looks nice...

Wow nice - I looked into a VX220 ages ago - ruled it out on insurance costs!
Is that the 220bhp turbo version??
Nope, it's a 2.2 naturally aspirated.
Many prefer the turbo, i chose this over it. Much sharper, and a real joy on the twisties or on track.
I even managed to find one with a v70 in it
Love the car, love the wheels, love the plate! You lucky barsteward
I don't care if you have a T-5, a T-5R or an R......
......they wouldn't have existed if my Turbo hadn't forged the path!
loovely car
Thanks Chaps. Coming up to five years ownership and it makes a great companion to the volvo. They couldn't be more different. yet both are excellent at some things and trully shocking at others.
