PetraThis thing sounds mental. Reading the build for the car it has had some very nice features added like AOC radiator and manually adjustable awd.

Thanked 102,999 Times in 1,826 PostsI think that was the engine light, the whole ECU system seems to piggy back the volvo one so it probably intermittently throws up weird lights.

Thanked 2,912 Times in 1,859 PostsI would say that could easily be done for RS4 money and probably a good few grand to spare too. Originally Posted by Justin

Its funny, I still keep browsing at RS4's since the trip in yours... I think an S60R however will be on the cards next year.Arguing is pointless....she may not be right but she's never wrong

Thanked 2,643 Times in 1,928 PostsQuality, how refreshing to see a modern R with serious power. I also think that the engine sounds less "worked" in that car when compared to most of the 850 videos you see.. Must be the added sound deadening/refinements of the later cars. I have to say I think the driver is nuts going at that pace in the snow but from a traction (power to the road type) point of view it does a fantastic job
