    If one of mine goes crunch, I have 5 left, if one of yours goes crunch, your back to the 70's, driving a 4 speed car.

    The gearbox will do 190mph, unfortunately as you're a bit short on horses, the car won't.

    LOL

    You realise we've ruined another perfectly good thread with our arseing about pmsl.

    I can't even give you stick about having a heavier car - I have a reinforced chassis - probably weighs more than yours rofl.

    Yeah, think we may have drifted a bit off topic

    Your seats look really good Shane, if not orange enough.


    Think I've managed to get it back without anyone noticing.

    That was a photo off google, as I didn't have one of our's to hand, hence the comms pack (which ours hasn't got). The interior in my sig is ours, aqlthough the wheel's not straight in that either.

    Going back to the seat pockets, perhaps the V70s had 2 per seat and the S60s only had 1.

    yeah, I'd ditch the comms pack for the sake of the cup holder too lol.
    how does having a big boot mean you get an extra seat pocket?
    handy tho, you can carry loads of wine in them.
