Well some have seen my new sig pic and some havent.
Well collected my new volvo on sunday morning and im very impressed with her,shes the newest volvo ive owned and im very happy with her,shes got a few little problems that need sorting but for a bag of sand shes not to bad.

She drives so smooth,power is good for standard and she handles better than my 850 did lol.
Shes a C70 T5 1999 me7.

And yes i have plans for her,she got blues as standard so dont need them lol,will be getting bigger turbo,stainless exhaust,map,3" intercooler if it fits lol.
Should be ready for may/june ish all being well.

Im happy to have had the fastest 850 last year.
Will be happy with a 13 sec pass once finished in this one,not really looking for major power just a quick all round car.

I heard that

She looks lovely. Needs shinier wheels - anthracite looks a bit dull to me.

If you need any help or advice with the car - I'll happily help. I also have a few spares should you need (including a door & a boot lid).

I am biased but I do find that the handling is pretty good on the C's

Cheers Dave,i think you could be right about the alloys lol,think your also spot on with the handling defo seems much better than the 850.s70R ive drove then again could be due to the 235 on the back and 225 on the front?

**t5 pete** · Thursday 10th March 2011, 10:09

Very nice and in my opinion the best looking car Volvo have ever made.

Just need to update it with the later jewel headlights and later style grille. That was my intention when i had mine, but it didn't stop there, lowered it, remapped it, electric seats put in it, Porsche brake setup put on it, 18" pegs lol.
